Everything the President says is consequential, because he is the head of the largest(ish) military in the world, America hasnt been shy of economic and military imperialism over the past 25 years, and the Americans have decided to give their political head extreme power. To ignore him would be to ignore the gorilla in the room just because that gorilla is deranged. Excuse me, the gorilla in the room is deranged, that is NOT a gorilla anyone should be ignoring. The media are doing their job by reporting the White House. The Americans fucked up their one useful job by allowing him to be the most powerful man in the world. Again.
