If Trump wins, he will be president for lif, as will be maybe Ivanka (with the blessing of the GOP) later. That will mean the potential end of liberal democracies in the West. And yes, unless the war in Ukraine is over by then, even a potential land war in Europe, again.
And depending how that goes, who knows what China will be up to regarding Taiwan. Or Indi and Pakistan, once the stops are pulled, it will only be downhill. Or not, part of me still has hope. Not a lot, but still.

- jacquesm 3y agoThat ice is too thin for my taste. It came bloody close. Much closer than it had a right to. Mike Pence should get some kind of medal, I absolutely abhor his politics but to stand straight in the face of that much pressure is heroic at some level.
