    This is the guy under whose ‘leadership’, Dutch politics turned into a toxic cesspool. Education has worsened, the housing market has crashed, environmental problems were not solved and his party made sure that the energy infrastructure was not kept up properly, so that the citizens now pay for a hastened upgrade of said infrastructure. He has claimed to have no vision and is a compulsive liar with a very selective memory. I have not even touched all the debacles he facilitated.

    This guy is now the boss of NATO and calls Trump ‘daddy’. He is a fucking disgrace. I am ashamed to be from the same country as this piece of shit.

    • Rutte was a terrible PM. But he’s a pretty good diplomat. Which I suppose is what NATO needs atm, a diplomat to keep Trump on board, even if it means licking copious amounts of orange ass. There’s no low he won’t go to in order to achieve that goal. He’s doing everything he can to keep Trump from dragging the US out of NATO, which I suppose kind of fits his job description.

        Exactly, he is keeping the US distracted while the Rest of NATO builds a parallel structure to put in place when the US attacks them or just splits off.

        The best thing is that I don’t think he knows that…

        See that mast disappearing behind the horizon? That ship sailed a long time ago.
