Mandelson accuses European leaders of ‘histrionic’ reaction to Trump’s Greenland stance

I'm sure he thinks our reaction to his friendship with Epstein is histrionic as well.

Histrionic implies a level of overdramatization. So, no, I don’t think the situation is being overdramatized.

On the contrary, I do think that European leaders are being (and have been, for a very long time now, and definitely since orangeboi’s first time around) unbelievably naive and myopic when it comes to the likely behavior of the fascists that now run shit over here.

Seriously, stop pussy-footing around. Make some fucking contingency plans, for christ’s sake. The EU is effectively the last major bastion of democracy and humanistic governmental policy, and they are largely proving that they are categorically unprepared for this very plausible eventuality, that they completely ignored pretty much all the indicators leading up to this, and that there are no good plays to make now as a direct result of that lack of preparation. And it breaks my fucking heart.

Fuck this ass clown.

OK. But the quotes of what he wrote are just weird.

tl;dr: he's salty and hitting back at his former employer.

If mandleson is criticising starmer perhaps starmer is not as bad as i thought.

Mandelson needs to crawl back under his flat stone.
