With death threats being the sign of a deeply articulate and sophisticated political culture, I have cleared my inbox to make space for them. But I should say I have always truly loved America. I’ve visited 38 of its great states in my time, and always dreamed of completing the set, but … not currently, let’s be honest. I note US tourism is currently experiencing a downturn in visitors from previously enthusiastic markets. Who among us can imagine why? Still, no doubt numbers from Nato countries in Europe will rally if Trump (a five-time draft dodger) continues to piss on their military graves. Reminder: Nato has activated its collective defence clause precisely once since its inception – at the request of the United States, in the wake of 9/11. Our troops fought and died in all their stoopid wars – but now, apparently, we have to listen to Trump’s whiny little rants about how nobody really put themselves on the line.
