I don't see many comments here about the actual topic. Such is the case with anything Trump related.

Needless to say, though I consider Krugman to have failed at practically every prediction he made in his NYT columns, his point is very valid.

No one should stand for this. Unfortunately a very bad precedence has been set by many politicians in the US.

I find it hard to see that this would ever change if the governing authorities are as tame and neutered as they seem to be.

Ultimately it is a question of how to root out corruption. And it must be a path 90% agree on. I don't see it as helpful to become emotive.

The real curious part to me is why there are such large reactions when neither the US nor the Iranians seem to be truthful and seem to agree even on what they disagree on...
