ExtremeDullard, please stop supporting fascists.
Gustavo is clearly a democrat by praxis.
He is stating what MAGA dares not say.

Sad that it took a coup for someone of importance to state the obvious out loud.

Yes, though I thoroughly agree with them at least. That's 100% what it has always been.

Controversial is quite the take, Trump famously has been downplaying the Epstein file releases to the point that it just invites you to assume.

Also reading through this:

Petro has previously made headlines for his extreme views, including a past statement about “taking out” the current U.S. president. This indicates a pattern of incendiary language, which he appears to use to rally support among his base while simultaneously alienating relations with the United States.

Not for nothing, the president quite* literally just "took out" a head of state. Wtaf is this article?
