    USA was a world stabilizer. 1 trump term and a quiet Biden follow up and we have Russia and Israel losing their damn minds. Even N Korea is marching.

    And why not? Who will stop them? China amassing around Thailand per a couple articles.

    Impulsive. With a “I do what I want.” slogan is the new USA example. The world will follow. The USA guardrails were only broken the first Trump term and only the boldest broke through. Now they’re completely off. Anything could happen.

    Between this and our internal rage regarding healthcare and money, I’m not feeling optimistic about the next few years.
