Re: FormerStudentIntern.

Yes, the world is going through an authoritarian/right shift in many places. But I was pleased to see That Candidate fail to win the recent Dutch election.

Re: sam,

I will be surprised if he lasts even a year. Problem is, we don't have a mechanism for dealing with a fraudulent election, as far as I know. We need to nullify the whole election because of his collusion with the Russians, at least.

Re: Kabu,

Yes, it's good to be able to do that, to quietly sit back from the crazy world, like sitting out a blizzard cuddled up with your loves!

Re: Annicita,

I am most concerned about the damages he and his pals can do that can't simply be turned around by the next sensible administration, like selling of public lands so his pals can mine and deforest and deface.

Re: CCT,

Well, every nation has its ups and downs, its Julius Caesars and Caligulas... I think we have a Nero here. I think it will be survived, but it won't be forgotten. Mostly, I hope we have learned something about not paying attention while the dirty politicians are arranging their own nests.

There are a lot of common themes throughout the world right now...I am curious to see what will happen with France's election.

It is good to step away and enjoy other things in the World , to realize power greed money government is everywhere and the World seems to go in cycles. I hardly watch the news at all these days. I want to grow old with Wiley and forget the outside World except for Blogit and some FB.

The problem is if he is doing this much damage and taking the country on the brink of bankruptcy so quick in his administration....in four years will we even be the usa or a world power or will be just another 3rd world country begging for hand outs?

I don't even like to think about it.  Doesn't he even realize what it means that his approval rating is only 37%?
