Well. At least we don’t have a Georgian Nuland.

I can understand some of the appeal of the Trump-Vance campaign.
It can be hard to gauge which aspects were more sincere than others.

It is difficult to gauge how sincere team Trump is in disengaging from our war with Russia. Team Trump is pretty conventional and bipartisan on Israeli interests. China’s economic integration with U.S. Allies means most of Trump’s Carny Barking about China is nonsense.

So…when the next market bubble bursts or fiscal emergency happens, we can probably just get into some squabble with Venezuela over Guyana territory issues.

It is okay. Most of the next wave of refugees will end up in Europe.

Ronald Reagan is still iconic. The American humans should study him through the lens of Jack Matlock.
