I’m not going to dissect Trump’s recent actions, but the news of that arms deal with Saudi Arabia is just more evidence that the oligarchs here really don’t have a clue.
They don’t get it, and Trump, especially, seems to “not get it” most of all. Perhaps on purpose, I don’t know.
But, they’re just delaying everything. The empire is falling. It’s over, no matter what they do. These steps to postpone the inevitable are only going to make it that much harder for them to re-connect with the people here, if such a thing is even possible anymore.
Regarding Trump, it’s just more dumb, incomprehensible nonsense from him. He’s giving the world’s primary exporter of terrorism half a trillion dollars in weapons to fight… terrorism. To fight the countries that stand against terrorism. Like Yemen, and indirectly Syria and Russia. WTF, Trump? Really?
See the problem, here? I mean, the Bin Laden family is still one of the Royal families in Saudi Arabia, is it not? I wonder how many weapons they’re getting.
And it’s just more military shit. More wars for nothing but oligarch profits and military spoils. And heroin, of course. Can’t forget that!
And as usual, we see the ruling families chiming in with their typical nonsense. Jeb is back in the news. So is Hillary. Yawn.
It just seems so done. So over. So last century.
Honestly. Guys… it’s over.
When you hear about the East, you hear about the new Silk Road project. Now that sounds exciting! It’s new, and different. And ambitious. And cool.
What Trump and the rest of the loonies here have brought to the table in so very, very… old.
Yawn.
