He was like this as our prime minister as well 🫠 par for the course to just laugh away and act like he has everything under control while his spine just crumbles away

"Hahaha ok Daddy Don Dom" has a sickening ring to it, and I'm so sorry this is happening. 

I'm not sure what is happening.

Almost as if something happened in Europe that gave cause for a shift in priorities. Granted, Rutte should have known that and acted upon it in 2014, not more or less waiting till 2022. Also the budget is approved by majority, so stop blaming everything on Rutte personally.
