Given the American knowledge on history and geography it's very much possible the Atlantic somehow went to a different conference in a different Munich.

Can’t support you anymore if you’re elevating fascism’s next golden boy. How far you’ve fallen. Unfollowed unsubscribed.

The Atlantic and those loving decorum is easily swayed by diplomatic language for terrible ideas. Heaven forbid if someone use a bad word or an insult, , unless it is Trump and they just ignore it. They reserve their School Marm language scolding for Dems

So now The Atlantic is yet another mouthpiece for the Trump administration's propaganda machine. Aren't Atlantic employees considered educated and intelligent? Did not a single editor read a history book about how the Nazi regime actually started (you know, before the end horrors we're taught)???

Nonsense.

Duuuuudes. 🙄 “Impressive speech”? From Rubio? ‘Bye Felicia.

Nah. Same shite as Vance, but in "good cop" speak.

What the actual fuck? Go and do one.

Utter bullsh*t. The cowardice coming from the Fourth Estate is telling.

This is holding water for the admin. Who is the audience for this besides Trump and his larger kleptocracy

White supremacy is reassuring to no one who cares about democracy.

Has anyone figured out how L'il Marco is connected to #Epstein There is zero chance that they did not cross paths in the S. Florida political scene. He may have been smart enough to not rape children, but I doubt his hands are clean when it comes to money.

it was pure garbage actually.

Too little too late. We no longer trust any words coming from the current US government!

gfy

The train, however, has left the station and has left Rubio standing by himself on the platform, baggage in hand...... www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgjy...

Europeans are looking east now. And they are right. They don’t need friends like Trump and not even like Biden who was not that friendly. The U.S. need to come to terms with the idea Europe is no longer their little frightened brother.

Kinda rallied them for white supremacy. (Though *apparently* after last year they made sure most of the room was Americans.) I think the actual answer from Europe may have come from the Dutch the next day: telling the world they could jailbreak the F-35.

WTF is this? The bar is so low for this regime. Stick with @anneapplebaum.bsky.social

Thinking about blocking the Atlantic now.

Unfollowed, for fuck's sake

I cannot believe you paid this guy to write this MAGA-fluffing garbage. Is The Atlantic in favor of White Supremacy and I just didn't know it when I subscribed?

Interesting part about vassals

Little Marco Rubio is as bad as JD Vance and Trump

You have got to be kidding me. Just because he cleared the bar of Vance’s speech doesn’t mean it wasn’t a racist enunciation of authoritarian principles. FFS, who okayed this article?

so white nationalism is fine so long as it's delivered politely

Is the Atlantic publishing satire now?

So because there were no threats or belligerency - just a quiet menacing messaging of badly-disguised racism, white nationalism & warped bigoted christian superiority, you’re praising a white (literally) washed American gaslighting speech to Europe. You are shameful @theatlantic.com

Combover Rubio has peaked politically. Nobody’s impressed with a morally double-jointed, sycophant sociopath learning to recite a lullaby. His alliances and actions speak louder than his recitals, and will be how he is remembered and judged.

The Atlantic is confusing. They will put out piece after piece of well-reasoned, quality journalism and opinion writing, stuff with thoughtfulness and nuance. And then, bizarrely, choose to splatter their own pages with dreck like this or laughable slop from the Tyler Chattertons of the world. Odd.

Hold da phone! Did we hear the same speech?

Who knew that Marco Rubio’s mom was named Eliot Cohen, because only a mother could look at that speech and claim it reassured and rallied Europeans. Well, maybe Putin and Orban.

Is this the onion?

Yeah I’m pretty sure he failed at both of those objectives

Opening foray for 28

He basically repeated what Vance said a year ago, just somewhat less aggressively

Orban says hi, you Weimar media.

I cancelled a decades old subscription last year. The appeasement pattern had fully emerged by then undoing multitudes of continued good work. I'm not going to pay for that which is why their print articles are full of ads with schlongs in banana hammocks. Nope.

Have you not been paying attention?

Past actions of Rubio and this admin aside (and what an aside that is), are we handwaving away certain parts of the speech or grading on a very generous curve? Either way, unseriousness abounds.

He really didn’t.

Shut your Putin asset whore mouth kthx

the Atlantic could have written an article about this admin that was an "ass clowns version of journalism like they usually do" -instead, you went full facism supporter

As someone who actually watched the speech...

Too late. Everyone already knows what he represents.

Lol oh is that what that was

What the hell happened to The Atlantic should be the discussion here

Oh bs. No one trusts us anymore. Trump doesn’t pay any attention to Rubio. This speech is less than nothing.

I thought it was awful and white supremacist nonsense.

did... anyone who wrote this actually hear what he said?

you know who he works for, right?

drink a fart, m8

Uh, you sure about that, Clark? youtu.be/JQtqA5kfhBI?...

Sadly no.

Cohen should have stuck with his earlier thought - “Europe Can’t Trust the U.S. Anymore.”

you mean gaslight them

You guys are so stupid.

Far better analysis here: bsky.app/profile/empt...

JFC - it was rpeating old stuff with less anger, but npot helpful at all. Again. words don't matter with this admin- Trump's actions do. He' dratimally reduced aid to UKR, and threatens the EU every chance he gets. Christ, you all cope with this administration far harder than any other.

What utter garbage

Hes still a piece of shit. He lies just as much as the pedofelon himself.

Rubio built on the Vance destruction and Trump’s incoherence. But @theatlantic.com decides that since Rubio didn’t shit the bed as bad as Vance he’s reassuring Europe. Then Rubio leaves and meets with the new authoritarian allies! Shame on The Atlantic for joining the MAGA media. #TheAtlanticRIP

The Atlantic joins the MAGA fold. What a disappointment.

credulous hacks

oh no you don't

Utter garbage
