Even British Tories don't want to be publicly associated with this self-serving piece of lying shit:

The president will meet Jeremy Hunt -- the Tory leadership candidate and Foreign Secretary -- for private talks. Earlier, Boris Johnson, one of Hunt’s rivals, said he couldn’t meet the president because he had to prepare for a campaign event.

The decision over whether or not to meet Trump is an awkward one for Tories who are hoping to become prime minister. On the one hand, if they win, they will need a good relationship with the U.S. On the other, being seen to get too close to such a divisive figure could hurt the next Tory leader’s chances in a general election.

For with what right
can reason,
in its logical
exercise, require us to regard
the variety
of forces
which nature displays,
as in effect
a disguised unity,

and to deduce them
from one fundamental force
or power,
when she is free to admit
that it is just
as possible that all forces
should be different in kind,

and that
a systematic unity
is not conformable
to the design
of nature? ”


Neither can we assert
that reason
has previously
inferred this unity
from the contingent nature
of phenomena.

For the law of reason
which requires us
to seek for this unity
is a necessary
law,

inasmuch as without it
we should not possess
a faculty of reason,

nor without reason
a consistent
and self-accordant mode
of employing
the understanding,
nor, in the absence of this,
any proper and sufficient
criterion of empirical truth.

-- Immanuel Kant, “The Critique of Pure Reason.”. Section 37.

Там ближе к концу есть момент, когда мама-белка начинает обрубать ему ветки, чтобы не за что было держаться.
