https://www.rainews.it/articoli/2025/01/giorgia-meloni-stati-uniti-incontro-trump-mar-a-lago-46234680-ea1a-45ee-ba4c-b7d3bb654499.htmlThis is an unannounced and "secret" trip. Trump's transition spokesperson and all-around ass hat Stephen Cheung refused to confirm or deny. Biden will be in Italy next week for his last official trip as President.
Meloni, of course, if part of the European far right, but has tended to be much less far right on some issues than expected, especially in her unswerving support of Ukraine and condemnation of the Russian invasion. (She has been vicious and brutal on other issues, especially LGBTQ and immigration).
Interesting to see what unfolds.

Given Trumps unwavering commitment to misogyny I can see things going very wrong.
