Now we know what Vice-President J.D. Vance meant by ordo amoris. In a performance that lacked both ordo and amor, it seems to mean appeasing your powerful enemies and bullying your vulnerable friends. TOM WRIGHT, OXFORD

In his own eyes, President Trump is a winner and cannot be seen as anything else. Any association with a loser would reflect badly and in the Ukraine conflict he can see no winner other than Russia. Morality and justice do not enter his mind.
