We are never the answer. We are only a problem
The rest of the world has long known the US as an unpredictable arrogant sulky baby.
In areas such as international law, environmental reform, and the global flow of militarism, the United States is the sole or predominant bad actor.
Our unwillingness to honor our commitments, as embarrassingly demonstrated by the crybabies who met with our ally Zelensky this week, marks us as the single worst economy among the G20. Compared to our peers, we are uneducated, sick, have no access to justice, and waste more than we consume. Our stock markets don't compete because, other than the seven giants, our risk premium is out of control.
Shame on us and anyone who believes that Trump deserves anything more than being laughed at. Joe Pesci will be great playing Trump in "Bad Fellas" when it comes out. Pesci is way too handsome and eloquent for the role but fortunately we have CGI to reduce talented actors to real-life comic book thugs.
And since Trump loves to degrade himself in front of the camera, bringing all of us into his sewer, we don't have to wiretap him. Nixon contracted with mobsters in secret. Trump thinks he's making fun TV, destroying the last shards of our last place global ranking. For god's sake. He makes Nixon look sane. (Note to the film crew—Nixon looks like Trump. He’s dead but I still think he might be excellent if Pesci isn’t available. Just stand the coffin in the corner and turn on the cameras.)
