Julian: It is a demanding, difficult, time-consuming labour to research controversial complex international multicultural subjects and condense down to max-impact / minimum length ~ easy to argue it could be simpler / quicker to write a 3->500 page reference volume... I typically underestimate the time & effort required by an order of magnitude despite prior knowledge / experience! And - personally - no matter how many times I re-read / re-work before finalising, once I've done so I begin to spot errata and regret including / not including some or other points... So try not to fret too much! Looking forward to reading your finished / published work.
Trump is a better man than Biden. For Biden genocide was an opportunity to serve the requirements of his psychotic superiors. For Trump ethnic cleansing is a real estate opportunity for him to participate in with the tribe that taught him how to do business. For ordinary Americans the most important principle is that they get their principal and don't have to see any blood on it.
Ok Julian, Point of fact: every civilization in history has been run by power groups: Fascists strong men, oligarchs, organized crime, elite nobility. All political parties wind up in the control of some such group. You live in a country (Japan) run by interwoven organized crime syndicates and corporations controlling a uni-party. Europe is run by un-elected bureaucrats in brussels backed by elected parties (not individuals) under the control of the WEF, Davos crowd. For most of US history, every city east of Chicago/St Louis and north of the mason/dixon line has been run by democrats controlled by organized crime families. We pay our money, make our choices, and take our chances. At least Trump, Musk, Gates, Ellison made their money by building/creating as opposed to the Likes of Fink, Buffet, Bloomberg and SOROS who made theirs by manipulating markets, currencies and by often causing the very deficiencies and crisis they exploited and hurting millions of little people in the process. Putin has succeeded somewhat in driving the worst of the Oligarchs out (front men for the city of L ondon) of Russia. Trump is trying. Lets give him a chance to get people in position to change the narrative. He may fail but his heart is in the right place. He may succeed when he gets the right information, but he will succeed only partially, if at all, because he is bucking a trend that is 75yrs in the making and the US government does not have his back. Remember "perfection is the worst enemy of 'good enough'". What rules? in the US political system, rules players (Republicans) lose. Domestically, Trump is doing pretty well. He needs to get smart in foreign policy and has appointed some people who can help him. maybe?

Thank you. This is good advice.

"For ordinary Americans the most important principle is that they get their principal and don't have to see any blood on it." Important point I think.
Biden was, at best, a thing.
If many people do not disagree with you, you are not trying hard enough.
I am working on it! But so far I have been ahead of the curve.
