If Trump was as tough on Russia as he is on Harvard the Ukraine War might end sooner.

The U.S. Economy Is Racing Ahead. Almost Everything Else Is Falling Behind. The gap between Americans’ prosperity and quality of life has grown since the 1990s.

Money isn't everything America. You have tons of it, but are, collectively, miserable.

Given how absurdly wealthy he is and that he personally controls a global communication platform, perhaps it would actually be fair to limit Elon Musk's freedom of speech to render it proportional to that of most humans by , say, oh I don't know...only allowing him 1 tweet per 1000 years?

Canada’s oil patch rattled by Trump's tariff threat The proposed tariffs, if applied to oil and gas, could hammer Canada's economy and hike prices at the pump for Americans, analysts say.

If only there were pipelines to the water that allowed Canada to ship its oil elsewhere...

When we were children, we were taught that no matter how you reached, no matter much wealth and power you accumulated, you were not above the law.

We can no longer teach our children that.

And that's really fucking tragic.

The court martial bit is conjecture. Fine. But Trump's plan to purge Generals will likely go far beyond any realignment from previous Administrations.

There's a marked difference between the realignment of top military brass, which is to be expected, and an all-out purge, with court martials, of Generals who pissed you off during your last term. The latter will not go over well...at all.

Safe to say "buckle up" if Trump's appointments and his Transition Team's lack of cooperation with the GSA are any indication...

An actual collapse would be pretty cataclysmic, but the 2nd Trump term could certainly leave America badly beaten and bruised.
