MARTIN: OK, so at gatherings like this, there're often one-on-one meetings to the side. President Trump already met with the French president, Emmanuel Macron. Do we know what came out of that and what's ahead for him the rest of the day?

KEITH: So we don't know what came out of that. We know that Prime Minister Theresa May from the United Kingdom is very interested in talking to President Trump about information sharing and intelligence sharing because there is concern that the U.S. is letting things leak out. Tonight, President Trump will be at a working dinner with all of the NATO leaders. That's the big thing that is part of this event.

MARTIN: OK, NPR's Tamara Keith traveling with the president in Brussels. Thanks, Tam.

KEITH: You're welcome.

This endorsement says so much, on so many levels, none of it good about today’s extremist, wacked-out Republican Party. It used to be that the GOP was full of reasonable, responsible, serious statesmen like John Warner. Heck, it used to be that the GOP was full of progressives, believe it or not. But today? It’s more like the John Birch Society, combined with the McCarthyites and a heaping helping of Pat Robertson’s wing of the party. In such a GOP, what place does someone like John Warner have? I can’t think of one. Meanwhile, the Democratic Party is about as centrist as can be, in agreement on almost every issue with the majority of Americans if you look at the polling.
