Amazing that one arsehole bloke has managed to make every single normal person’s life measurably worse, all around the world.
The Great Men theory of history is wrong, but the Massive Cunts theory of history is holding up pretty well. #Trump
Some have said that when a civilization starts to decline (the US), they elect/get a despot that says they’ll fix everything (Trump). This also includes a conflict with the coming power at some point (China).
Also that when former powers flounder (Russia), they lash out (at Ukraine).
The US is speedrunning it, they went straight to lashing out in the middle of the conflict with the up and coming power.
