In reply to the discussion: I'm not sure how to title this post. Re: Anxiety. [View all]WestMichRad
(3,165 posts)23. Naw, I don't think that's it.
TSF always, always does things for his own benefit. Doesnt give a shit about the consequences to others.
IMO, the two things he wants from this are: bury the Epstein files brouhaha, and create an emergency thru which he can try to commandeer election control. The fact that this military action creates chaos for tens of millions, and will bring about all sorts of bad consequences, I dont think he cares about at all. He just wants to retain power. Its his cash cow.
I share your anxiety about all this, Lucky. If we thought 25 was bad, it was just training wheels for the crap that this year will bring, no thanks to that fetid child effer.

POS is not an "imperfect president" or a "flawed character". He is an evil monster.

The President is an evil, insane monster. I feel like I am watching a trashy end of the world movie.

It seems Congress is impotent & SCOTUS is partially corrupt. If the States hold, it will be up to us..

You are right to feel anxious. In 2015 I tried to get my husband to move out of the US

At 66, for the first time in my life, I went on anti-anxiety pills, after Trump won again.
