Just not the way he means.

The change is what looks to be the final nail in the coffin with respect to our nation’s civilization.

This is going to rewrite global relations.

For those of us in the US, the task of rebuilding something completely different while freeing ourselves from billionaire extinction cult despotism will be the work of generations

It takes decades to build trust and it is being thrown away in weeks or even days.

It'll happen much more quickly than you think. There's no FDR to play interference for them this time.

She’d be fine. I just like Manda me right now because he’s so I don’t wanna say in your face, but he’s keeps on putting out the short videos of the mayor doing this in the mayor doing that which is a good PR at the very least but he’s doing all those horrifying communist things like fixing potholes and making life more affordable.

"In most versions of the story, Cyrus kept Croesus as his advisor".

I don't foresee that being Tump's end days.

King Croesus was told by the Delphic Oracle that if he invaded Persia, he would destroy a great empire. Croesus attacked the Persians, but was instead defeated and captured. The great empire destroyed was his own.

I feel a lot more hope reading this, than reading the folk calling in the politicians to ensure never again.

Thank you for being a light in the darkness.

It turned out it was his own.

We call people like Trump “Croesus” for a reason.
