I never ever thought I’d write these words. But I find myself desperately wishing for the arrival of the Donald Trump presidency. My driving force here is my love for my children and grandchildren. For their sake, Trump’s advent can’t come soon enough. I don’t want them to die in nuclear war.
As I’ve written elsewhere, my hope is not founded in admiration for Mr. Trump. Far from it. I consider the man a moron unfit for the U.S. presidency.
But he seems to be our only hope of avoiding World War III and the end of humanity – an agenda recklessly pursued by the lame duck Biden administration so recently and so decisively rejected by the American electorate.
Have you seen what that old fool is doing? Do you realize the threat his utter stupidity poses to our children and grandchildren?
He’s trying to “Trump-proof” his insane and ill-fated Project Ukraine.
After having repeatedly rejected Russian attempts to resolve the project’s underlying issues (even before Mr. Putin’s invasion), and after more than a million casualties resulting from such obstinacy, Genocide Joe is trying to transform his failed project into World War III.
His “reasoning” seems to be that such transformation would tie Donald Trump’s hands. That is, despite his repeated promises to end the Ukraine War 24 hours after assuming office, the new old fool would find himself obliged to see it through to its suicidal end, thus dooming ourselves, our children and grandchildren.
That’s the problem. The “End” of World War III will be THE END of us all!
For Ukraine!!
It’s all so insane.
To implement the insanity, the senile old man with one foot already in the grave has:
- Allowed Ukraine to invade Russia’s Kursk Region
- Given Zelensky “permission” to attack targets deep within Russia.
- Directly involved the U.S. and its NATO allies in targeting those attacks.
- Permitted U.S. military brass to speak of the possibility of direct U.S. “preemptive” strikes against Russian targets.
- Allows NATO “allies” to threaten fielding “boots on the ground” in Ukraine which remains the most corrupt government in Europe.
None of this is even remotely necessary.
Imagine U.S. reaction to similar events on our border. Imagine if Russia or China struck an alliance with Mexico or Canada, poured in arms and trained their allies specifically for conflict with the United States. Would the U.S. stand by idly?
Of course it wouldn’t. Of course it didn’t during the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis.
This is not complicated. It’s simply crazy. It represents complete insanity on the part of “leaders” who should be put in jail for even considering such hypocrisy and mass murder. I can’t wait for January 20th.
Hell, I’m hoping we’ll make it to Christmas!
About Things That Matter 
I’m going to leave aside various political stances implied in this post, other than noting that I mostly disagree, and simply ask the question; What provocation from either side toward the other justifies or makes logical the initiation of a civilization-ending nuclear war? You have previously described Putin as a ‘statesman’. Place yourself in his position. Is there some action (outside of a nuclear first strike) his enemies could take that would make launching a nuclear attack the logical, justifiable next move? He is described, even by his enemies internally and externally as a patriot who wants to restore and reclaim the glory of the Russian Empire. It’s not fair to criticize that goal when several other players – the USA, the UK, and China share the same desire.
The question then is, does “going nuclear” have any chance of achieving that goal? It may be the case that leaders on all sides are playing a game of chess in which we – the citizens of the world – are the pawns, but one would hope that the insane are not in control of the asylum.
The whole potential scenario is reminiscent of the wife-beating husband who says “Look what you made me do.”

Consider what has been going on in Ukraine:
There was a reason why Ukrainian medical professionals were averse to taking the “vaccines”. Don’t know exactly what that reason was, but people generally have reasons for their behavior, even when that reason is not immediately obvious to others:

So interesting, Mary. There’s so much that’s been kept secret about those labs.
