Well said. Everyone around Trump are just worrying about personal gain. Trump is doing it, why not everyone else. Makes we wish George W. was President instead.Quote:

Even that doesn't bother me as much as people like Kellyann Conway who are neither racist, stupid nor blind to the damage and for personal gain continue to lie for the dangerous foulness that is Trump and his ilk. That is the truest evil.
Btw you are entirely right in saying that you can't justify your actions by saying someone else is guilty of it as well. If you could then all criminals would immediately walk free as they aren't unique in any of their crimes.
For some reason (GREED) after WWII the United States decided to become the World's police. Maybe they originally wanted to prevent another Hitler. If we didn't have nuclear weapons Putin probably would be. If the US didn't interfere in other countries business, we wouldn't have this problem. But who knows what things would be like if the US didn't. Could be better or worse.Quote:

@Steven S: Not bad, but the book was much better.
Apropos considering most of the governing body are puppets to one interest or another.Quote:

Whatever you think of the US, they are terrific at irony.
