I missed this article at American Conservative, almost a sort of manifesto, amid all the hubbub late last week—the Iran - Saudi reconciliation, China - Russia, SVB and so forth.
I’m hoping. I’d love to see a wide open, down and dirty free for all primary season. Trump will whine and scream but he needs to compete we need younger blood and new ideas.
May it be so. The godless leaders of our nation have caused far too much harm across the world as well as here at home to be left in charge of the nation, the armory, the money, or even a nursery anymore. They have proven themselves untrustworthy.
So is it $80 billion or $8 billion when it comes to how much stuff we left in Afghanistan? The first number is ginormous and I think the difference is meaningful.
There's still a way to go. What I'm seeing is that many of the candidates have done their homework--polling--and sense the visceral opposition to the war and its effect on America among a wide swath of Americans. They're trying to position themselves to take advantage of that, but they're doing it in a cautious way that would allow them to backtrack. They're covering themselves by unanimously making China the new boogeyman. While most of them point at our domestic problems--especially drug use--I don't really hear any of them suggesting that we need to get our national cultural house in order if we're ever going to solve our other problems--class warfare by the rich against everyone else, a political class that is largely the paid shills for the rich and interest groups, etc. Pence and Noem seem the most incorrigible to me. Noem wants to try to force the world to use King Dollar--that could lead anywhere. There's still too much of, America should tell the world how to run its affairs, Messianism.
Whatever Vivek's prospects, quite pleased that his candidacy will force discussions and taking of positions on critical, but largely glossed-over, market issues.
I'd say that competition is returning to the world stage, versus scales with large thumbrests.
Going to be interesting.

Sounds like a good thing.

I think I’ve been waiting all day for this
The shot fired across the bow
Regime change ahead
Sorry. I actually wrote this first thing this morning but somehow forgot to click the last necessary click to publish.

Obama’s plan was/is to destroy and sow the earth with salt.
Well said.
