Term 2 Trump foreign policy - from tariffs to NATO to soft power to China and Russia - is an epic mess. One reason seems to be that the administration is operating with two conflicting, equally flawed, views of the world and the US's place in it. 🧵

I could feel that last night. Lots of new faces. Activists meeting one another. People energized being with others—hearing their own questions asked and addressed, watching others bravely stand up. People leaving hungry to do more. 14/

As I say Good Morning to all my fellow Reds Liverpool FC In 51 years I have had the honour to see so many good things at our Club, yet like many I've also seen us struggle. When this video 1st came out after our 30 year wait, I cried & then I added #YNWA which made me smile again #LIVTOT
