The Trump Slump Opens a Boulevard for the Democrats

30 September 2026
A little over a month before the November 3 midterms, Donald Trump’s approval rating has hit its lowest point since he took office — worse, at this stage of the calendar, than George W. Bush’s before the 2006 Republican rout. War in Iran, inflation, diesel prices, a Russian affair surrounding his son’s wedding, taxpayer-funded self-glorification clips: the fronts are multiplying, and even within his own camp, caution has replaced loyalty.

Heavy on Pomp, Light on Substance

26 September 2026
Three days of red carpet, a two-month tariff truce, and a verdict that runs through the entire international press: the Xi-Trump summit in Washington (24-25 September 2026) will be remembered as an exercise in diplomatic staging, all but empty of substance.

The transatlantic alliance was not merely a treaty signed on paper; it was a brotherhood of arms and of ideals.

Thank You, Donald: The Chaos That Reshuffled the World’s Cards

17 September 2026
Eighteen months of disorder: a president who humiliates his allies, depletes his own munitions stockpiles, normalizes Russian assistance to an adversary killing American soldiers — and who, without meaning to, may have done more for Europe’s strategic autonomy than ten years of speeches. The question is how much longer the world will wait, arms folded, for someone to tell him so to his face.
