Still reeling from the "blow-up" in that Oval Office meeting on Friday. There was one brave, courageous, very admirable leader in that room, and he was not an American. That one lone leader was surrounded, & out-numbered by a depraved mob of creepy, greedy, disgusting thugs. Oh, yeah,
those were the Americans.
A pivot point. My conclusion? USA is fucked royally.
We are firmly in the grip of the worst people imaginable. They seem to be intent on destroying America from the inside out, and the outside in. It is destruction across the board, and still, not yet two months in. It seems that the large, loud, fat man with the orange tan, and his gang of spineless toadies, is doing Vladimir Putin's bidding. They are aligning America with Putin's Russia. Turning their backs on our European allies. Holy shite. There are many plausible reasons for why he, and they, would do that, but let's just cut to the chase, this administration is clearly not doing anything to the benefit of America, the American people, or America's allies.
The post World War II alliance of Democracies around the world is being smashed & trashed.
The "toxic one's" display of anger at the mention of his big daddy Putin, was sickening. He started shouting about "World War III." Fuck. The President of the United States unhinged. He totally lost his shit. The mask fell to reveal the dark heart of sick-corruption, a black-hole of deep, unvarnished, nihilism. It was bad, super-bad. Dare I say that man is very, very unwell? He gets off on his own bile, anger & hatred. Scary as shit.
At that moment, my thought? America is finished. I think so. At least my previous conception of what Amercia has meant to me as a country, and an ideal. So weird, and sad, that we actually did this to ourselves.
I suppose coming to that realization was a relief. No going back. Something new will have to emerge out of the wreckage. Time for new ideas. New movements. New organizations. New Dreams. In the meantime, lots of chaos and destruction seems to be in the cards. Pretty sure all of us will suffer the consequences. Of course, the wealthy ones will be somewhat insulated, but if, and when, maybe sooner than we think, the financial system cracks and craters, well, even the wealthy folks amongst us will be slimed. It's an all American Nighmare now. Yikes.
