22,000?
That was just in one month.
Trump and Putin will keep on talking, Trump will no doubt try “secondary sanctions”, which would mean tariffs on all the countries Russia does business with—China, for one. Oh, already sanctioned up. Or is that “sanctioned out”. Iran? Ditto. Ah, India — there’s an increasingly powerful country you want alienate.
Not to worry.
Trump is a “stable genius”. He’ll work it out— by summertime, when Russia’s armed forces should make the Pentagon wet its fatigues. And by which time Ukraine will be to Russia what the US would like Greenland to be.
In the meantime, the Europe is evolving from a utopian dream to a dystopian nightmare. Soon, Europe will have not time for a proxy war against Russia, it will be too busy putting down local rebellions, border wars, and angry pensioners with nothing to lose.
The key words? Nihilism and narcissism.
I would like to say “it’s all thanks to Donald” but that’s giving him too much credit , He’s just a white, orange-haired Obama, in the same groove as previous presidents, unable to escape the downward slide into the cesspool of history.
Sad to say, Trump’s presidency will be known as “The Apprentice”
He has even managed to alienate the Canucks, those mild-mannered folks north of the border who like to drink beer, and think Hockey. It seems Canadians have finally gotten off the couch. Not to worry the game has been recorded.
They can come back to where they left off.
Or maybe not. Occasionally in life, there is no “coming back”.
They have just concluded a deal with a Chinese oil company to export oil not only to China, South Korea and Japan. Then, LNG. Oh my! So much for a united front with the US against Fu Manchu and Dragon Lady.
Keep in mind that China is the US’s Number One target.
But, hey, give Trump time. He’s still learning— the Apprentice President.
I love dogs!
The house caught fire. The people ran out. The dog ran in to save the kitten!
Ichi, of course, thinks he is actually a dog. Saving Chappy the Cat.
Please support Ichi’s efforts, and Chappy’s too while I clean the toilets.
I’m an American and plead guilty to being mesmerized by flim flam. My favorite book to curl up with is an old Guinness Book of Records I found at a sale at my local public library when i was in high school.
So is it possible that Trump will set some kind of record for running four wars on four continents? Europe, Middle East, Asia (Taiwan Straits), and North America (Greenland). That would honestly be so cool.
Even better would be a simultaneous domestic insurrection. In his memories, Trump will write “I wanted America to burn so a new America could arise from its ashes”.
Who is this Trump guy everybody talks about? I've never heard of him.
