2. When you lose support from an extreme right-wing politician you know it's bad..

Being a woman put her on tRump's D-list.

"Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is widely classified by political scientists and international media as far-right or extreme right-wing. She leads the Brothers of Italy (Fratelli d'Italia) party, which has deep ideological and historical roots in Italy's post-fascist movement.Her platform is anchored in hardline conservative and nationalist principles:Immigration: Strict border security, anti-illegal immigration measures, and policies opposing mass migration.Social Values: Strong opposition to "gender ideology," the "LGBT lobby," and an emphasis on traditional "natural" families.Nationalism: A heavy focus on protecting Italian sovereignty and skepticism toward international bureaucracy.Despite her far-right origins and platform, Meloni has surprised many observers by governing in a more pragmatic way since taking office. Unlike some other right-wing populist leaders, she has maintained strong, reliable support for the European Union, NATO, and Ukraine, which has earned her praise from mainstream Western allies.Who is Giorgia Meloni?

4. TY, BP! This all really interests me

especially since my sister and her family recently went to Italy on a wonderful vacation.

Wonder how the Italians feel about the way PEDO is treating Pope Leo XIV?

And now PM Meloni has been one of PEDO's attacking female victims.

Looks like she's not submitting to the World's Ugliest man.

9. Furious right-wing Italian paper brands Trump with a vulgar term in scorching op-ed

This makes me smile. This paper is calling trump out for being an asshole

A right-wing Italian paper went after Trump with a vulgar name amid his spat with the country's prime minister.

A right-wing Italian paper went after Trump with a vulgar name amid his spat with the country's prime minister.

"Sorry to say it, but I can't find, and perhaps there isn't, another way to say it," a translation of the Italian article from the Libero Quotidiano reads. "Donald Trump is an a—."

The article uses the Italian term "coglione," even using it in the headline, as it blasted Trump for ruining progress towards a friendly relationship with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni by telling an Italian news network that she "begged" him for a photo during the G7 summit. Meloni denied the account and accused Trump of making it up in a fierce response that tore into him.

"Only an a— could ruin everything with a lie so huge as to become ridiculous," the article read. "Why say such nonsense? The answer can only be found in the definition of the word 'a—' which has entered the popular jargon of the Italian language: an inept, stupid person who acts with little intelligence."

Trump stood by his claim that Meloni was a "big fan" of his in comments to NBC News on Friday. Meanwhile, Meloni was cheered on across the world, even called "fabulous," for firing back at Trump.

Although the article attacks "the inadequacy of the American president," it does strike a sympathetic tone by admitting, "it is not the case to declare war on America," and "we do not deny it, we too had placed many hopes" in Trump.
