30. The confrontation is more likely the US and Russia against NATO as long as Mango Mussolini is in charge

If there is widespread conflict in Europe, we will likely be on the side of evil allied with Putin.

I keep thinking that Putin, Ping, and Mango will divide the world up -- Putin gets the former USSR in Asia and all of Europe. Ping and China get Eastern and southern Asia, and the Oceania areas. The US will take North and South America.

The Secretary of the Army may think that we will be on the correct side of NATO, but Daniel is not the commander in chief.
