4. I think perhaps, we are a bit too late with the catastrophically stupid thing Trump might do.

I do believe the Iran war will qualify for that. Europe is set to run out of jet fuel in six weeks. This is right before their huge tourist season kicks into gear. Trump destroyed refineries that may take years to get back on line. There are countless business and entire countries that depend on a strong tourist season. This jet fuel shortage could wreak havoc with global wide economies. Face it, the man is an absolute disaster wrapped in a despicable personality.

It is way past time for politicians and the ultra wealthy to start paying for their mistakes or corruption. They have been getting away with everything for decades, that is why we now have Trump. No accountability, with Nixon, Reagan, North, the Supreme Court handing Bush the election in 2000, Bush and his entire Cabinet for lying about Hussein, Iraq and Afghanistan, Cheney, the backers of the so called Tea Party, Citizens United, and letting Trump off the hook in his first term. Then there was the complete fiasco with January 6th, why were those protesters not arrested on the spot leaving the Capital Building? Then Garland slow walking the trials and never getting to Trump who orchestrated the whole thing. How did Aileen Cannon manage to hold off the US DOJ from prosecuting Trump for all the top secret files in his bathroom? This whole system stinks to high heaven when it involves the wealthy or politically connected.
