As you might have heard, Donald Trump, true to form, said some hideously stupid things about Hezbollah and Israel.

His tendency to extoll the smarts of some of the worst malefactors around the world and to put his personal animosities — often driven by other people not accepting his delusions about the 2020 election — above any other consideration is terrible and unfixable.
