  • Oh, and you can count on Trump to keep a promise, right?

    Anyway, I don’t even see a pledge. I see a dishonest expression of regret:

    “I don’t want to use force. I won’t use force,” Trump said in a speech to government and business leaders in Davos. “Now everyone’s saying, ‘Oh good.’”

    That’s the energy of an abusive partner: “I don’t want to hurt you, but you’re giving me no option here.” It’s how they settle their conscience right before they hurt you.
