EVERY TRUMP FOREIGN POLICY SCANDAL IN ONE TWEET.

It is impossible to summarize any of Trump's complex foreign scandals in just 280 characters—key pieces will always be missing—but Twitter urges us to try. So I hope you'll RETWEET this thread of one-tweet Trump scandal summaries.

TRUMP-UKRAINE. Putin allies in Ukraine launder Trump campaign donations via shady Trump associates and provide fake dirt on Biden in exchange for Trump's help returning Ukraine's energy industry to Kremlin control. Side deals to keep Manafort quiet, aid Putin's war in Ukraine.

TRUMP-CHINA. In exchange for business deals, lucrative trademarks, fake Biden dirt, and PR from a trade deal, Trump agrees to ignore early intel on an emerging virus in China and stay silent on human rights abuses. Public and private comments establish a historic quid pro quo.

TRUMP-VENEZUELA. While pretending to support regime change, Trump secretly bolsters Venezuela's pro-Kremlin socialist leader via aides' clandestine negotiations. Agrees not to enforce US sanctions on Venezuela, to the enormous benefit of Putin and other autocrats Trump favors.

TRUMP-RUSSIA. Trump secretly negotiates Russian business deals while promising Putin the most pro-Kremlin foreign policy in US history, hiding this bribery by lying to the American people. Aids and abets Russian hacking after the fact and propaganda plot while it is happening.

TRUMP-SAUDI ARABIA. Trump receives Saudi financing for a pre-election Israeli-run disinformation campaign and to "kill" stories that could end his campaign. Promises Saudis nuclear tech, arms, and unprecedented geopolitical favors. Helps cover up the murder of a US journalist.

TRUMP-UAE. Trump receives Emirati financing for pre-election Israeli-run disinformation campaign—as well as Emirati aid in establishing a pre- and post-election backchannel to the Kremlin. Promises the Emiratis same nuclear tech as Saudis and unprecedented geopolitical favors.

TRUMP-ISRAEL. Longtime Trump family friend and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gifts Trump an illegal pre-election disinformation campaign that dovetails with Kremlin efforts in exchange for a promise to move U.S. embassy to Jerusalem and scuttle Mideast peace talks.

TRUMP-TURKEY. Trump secretly aids Turkish president Erdogan in three federal cases to preserve his business interests in Turkey, which Erdogan has threatened. He later green-lights—for the same reason—a Turkish invasion of Syria he knows is cover for the genocide of the Kurds.

TRUMP-IRAN. Trump scuttles successful nuclear deal with Iran to pave the way for a war he's promised Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Israel. Agrees to assassinate second-most-beloved Iranian at Israel's request—then lies to America about the plot. Result is hundreds of U.S. casualties.

TRUMP-NORTH KOREA. Trump spends years exchanging insipid "love letters" with North Korea's brutal dictator while putting photo ops over policy, knowing that the result of doing so will be a nuclearized rogue state capable of reaching America's West Coast with nuclear warheads.

. TRUMP-IRELAND/TRUMP-SCOTLAND. Despite most COVID-19 coming to America from Europe—not China—Trump exempts Ireland and UK from his "European travel ban," as these are the two countries he owns golf courses in. Effect of tardy and imperfect ban on U.S. deaths is incalculable.

TRUMP-QATAR. Trump receives illegal foreign donations to his inaugural fund from Qatar, later abandoning the U.S. ally to its fate when nations with whom he has a stronger quid pro quo—Saudi Arabia and the UAE—announce they want to blockade and possibly overrun their neighbor.

TRUMP-EU. Trump spends years lying about and trying to destroy the EU and NATO as part of a campaign to please Putin—whose chief political ambition is the destruction of the EU and NATO—to no benefit to the U.S. but great benefit to Trump's future business prospects in Moscow.

TRUMP-SYRIA. Trump abandons Syria to Russia and ISIS to please Putin and Erdogan. U.S. influence in the Middle East collapses; ISIS is revived; U.S. troops are forced to ignominiously flee from the country—under Turkish fire!—and abandon both ISIS prisoners and Kurdish allies.

. TRUMP-INDIA/TRUMP-EGYPT. In nations where he hopes to one day do business, Trump supports murderous, bigoted autocrats hostile to both freedom of the press and persecuted minorities. Trump's support props up regimes that endanger regional stability and global human rights.

TRUMP-AFGHANISTAN. Having said he wants the US out of Afghanistan; having spread Kremlin propaganda on Afghan history; having made clear he thinks leaving Afghanistan aids his reelection; Trump is silent on a Kremlin assassination plot aimed at driving the US from Afghanistan.

TRUMP-TAIWAN. As he's seeking to do business in Taiwan, president-elect Trump takes unprecedented steps—with no prior notification to anyone—to recognize Taiwan's independence, risking military conflict with China. He relents when China starts gifting him lucrative trademarks.

TRUMP-PHILIPPINES. After receiving a public endorsement from Filipino autocrat/madman Rodrigo Duterte in 2016—despite opining that foreign endorsements (if Democrats receive them) are collusion—Trump supports Duterte's policy of using the death penalty for nonviolent offenses.

TRUMP-HONDURAS, TRUMP-EL SALVADOR, TRUMP-GUATEMALA. Trump effectively sentences Central American refugees to a violent death in their home countries by stealing DoD funds to build a useless border wall and decimating US asylum policy. Puts kids in cages; some of them die.

TRUMP-COVID19. Trump criminally mismanages one of the worst public health crises in American history—a killer transnational pandemic—doing so to protect himself politically. His malfeasance, nonfeasance, and thousands of lies are provably linked to over 100,000 US deaths. /end
