It’s not some kind of new populist politics; it’s the old National Front.

Immigration is where Trump’s journey begins and ends: the message running all the way through this stick of rock.

Watching this pinball president ricochet around Europe, you could be forgiven for thinking there’s no method to Donald Trump’s madness. Nato is both a rip-off and very strong.

Trump has all the consistency of Katy Perry’s Hot N Cold, except when it comes to two things: immigrants and Vladimir Putin.
