It’s not as if I was optimistic about a second Trump presidency. The man is a nightmare! But I never thought he would plumb the depths he is pursuing. Sure, he withdrew from the Paris Agreement, and the WHO. I expected the ‘drill, baby, drill’. But threatening to take Greenland by force? I didn’t see that coming. NATO invading NATO is the end of NATO. And shamelessly claiming Gaza for the USA because it’s a nice real estate opportunity? And negotiating an end to the Ukraine war without involving Ukraine, and blaming Ukraine for the war in the first place? I knew it would be bad news for Ukraine, but I hadn’t anticipated it would be this catastrophic in my glummest moods.
I normally spend a lot of time worrying about climate change. I have drastically cut that back now! I’m way too busy worrying about the world descending into violent lawlessness. Some say a change is as good as a rest. In this case, I don’t agree…
