@GottaLaff
#Trump got his wanted victory, but it is a #pyrrhicvictory with a very high price. The world is being united against Trump. We already see the effect.
Putinpuppets are retracting their 🤮 reactions on #zelensky
Thank you Trump and #Vance

Dear Americans,
This is a page from De Volkskrant, a dutch newspaper with reactions from readers.
What is clear is that the shameless attack on #zelensky and the #ukraine people can only be qualified as a #pyrrhicvictory and the price is high.

...the #Jews globally.

Even while Western governments' opinion remains steadfastly pro-Israel, public opinion in many countries is edging towards support for the #Palestinian cause in many countries.

Last week's riots at the airport of #Dagestan, which must be read as a #pogrom against #Jews, is a clear warning sign.

Showing immediate restraint is in #Israels best interest.
Otherwise, IMO the #WarInGaza is bound to be a #PyrrhicVictory, as #Israel and its supporters...

Pulled off the house’s first seen Power Grid resource starvation victory, rocketing from last to first in the final round. Much cursing and gnashing of teeth followed. My wife informed me in jest that I’m sleeping on the couch. #PyrrhicVictory #boardgames #sorrynotsorry
