Fantastic, Michael.

Right or Left, people simply do NOT want their perceived heroes/saviors trifled with. Nuance, history and facts be damned.

Thanks for the much needed perspective and framing on holding power to account—wishful thinking ain’t gonna cut it.

That was a pleasure to read.

Trump’s on board with the American Empire but is more pragmatic, he doesn’t seem in favour of getting American boys killed, (nor Ukrainian/Russians) and frankly he is cost-conscious. His loadstone seems to be - not wasting money on these inconsequential issues when America is a not mess. He is hilarious when he mocks the liberal imperium as money poorly spent doing stupid things.

I know the author knows this, and so do you, but I felt like saying it . It’s a giant improvement over the dingbat liberals.
