The average US voter who just voted Trump into power for the second time…is too stupid to realise that it was not in their own interests to re-elect someone who so clearly is in politics purely and simply as an ego-trip and an exercise in self aggrandisement. A convicted felon, clearly a chauvinist, a failed business man several times over who even managed to bankrupt a casino…a cheap showman who proved the first time around that given his head (and this time he’s made sure of that by only appointing like-minded yes men who will fall in line with all and every con he dreams up) he will do everything he can to enrich himself and his billionaire cronies. His moves are straight out of the dictator’s handbook, he is turning the USA into his personal fiefdom..he feels admiration for Putin, Kim Jong Un, Erdogan etc…it’s all out there in the open for anyone with half a brain to see. I’m afraid there will be much crying and gnashing of teeth…and a tsunami of regret - amongst all but the most brainwashed MAGA supporters when the full effects of his BBB are fully realised.

I feel sorry for the rest of you guys, but I have to ask what has happened to the Democrats…in all of this? I’m not in the USA so am not really sure if there is an organised push back against this Trump takeover of the USA…his rebranding it as Trump plc.

Let me know…you know I’m unable to initiate any posts of my own now that the site’s glitch has decided to turn on me.

True; but there's nothing we can do about it.

My hope as a retired demographer is that we level off and decline soon.or the next pandemic will make COVID 19 seem polite...
