It is another day and another Trump stunt from Senator Di Natale. I get what is going on. He apparently is not left-wing enough and the dictation has come down from Left Renewal—he has his little script there from the politburo—and they have told him that he has to toughen up a bit and start attacking the American president. We may not all agree, and a lot of people have different views on foreign policy, especially when it comes to United States, but what we do not do is engage in these desperate, pathetic, stupid, silly, embarrassing stunts in the Senate day after day. I get it: you need to go back to the Left. I get it: your base is moving on you. I understand that. But, please, just be a professional at it.
