    > It starts off saying here are conservatives guesses for 2023. No, it starts of with: On the New Year’s Eve, everybody’s into making predictions Many come up with futuristic hypotheses, as if competing to single out the wildest, and even the most absurd ones. Here’s our humble contribution. What can happen in 2023: “Conservative” is not mentioned.
