Greetings good citizen, as our schizophrenic society alternates between interventionist and isolationist policies nobody is drawing attention to the fact that the U.S. has become a 'legend in it's own mind'...just like all of the other 'was-been' countries.
The U.S. WAS (and likely always will be) the planet's laughing stock because it's citizens are DELUSIONAL [largely due to our substandard education system and our corporate owned media the rest of the world has dubbed 'The lie machine'.
Zero irony that the current POTUS whose campaign slogan was MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! has shirked just about every leadership position that made the US the 'Leaders of the free world'. [Despite that designation being 99% propaganda since the Conservative revolution/bloodless coup.]
Really should have been more emphasis placed on educating the public to the teachings of John Jay, who, er, infamously opined 'Let those who OWN the land, RULE the land.' [Thus our Democracy in name ONLY!]
And since Mr. Jay's OTHER claim to fame is setting up our legal system it goes a long way towards explaining why those running the government are criminals.
So we arrive full circle at 'laughing stock' despite few of us finding any humor in the entire situation.
No need to remind the working classes that what they 'think' is of little concern to those who 'own' this place they allow us to call 'home'.
There's a big difference between 'owning' and renting in perpetuity, which is all a mortgage accomplishes.
You'd think that would have been part of Making America Great but remember who we're talking about here, butt-head was referring to his Television ratings and his election to the presidency is testament to that fact that NOBODY watched the Apprentice or they NEVER would have voted for him!
[Anyone paying attention knows this guy has NOTHING up his sleeve AND NOTHING between his ears, he's 110% EGO!]
Um, how sad is it good citizen that most of us know this...begging the question of how this man got into the White House and WHY did the oligarchs, er, appoint him?
But I digress, again.
The topic for the day is the downward spiral MOST of the planet's population is suffering and the amazingly buoyant stock markets that are used as evidence that everything is alright. [Like money, the stock markets are a lie too.]
Which is to point out that the US isn't the only nation in 'decline'. Capitalism is failing planet-wide and the capitalists have no clue what to do about it.
Perhaps the bone-heads thought El Trumpo could save it by re-branding it (although anybody paying attention knows the Trump label is TOXIC!)
Maybe it's those of us labeled as his 'base' that are missing the larger picture, the capitalists are out to destroy the markets and they are using El Trumpo to 'poison the well'...
Brilliant on both points because most of us are still clueless when the media tells us Trump's base still supports him. [Do you suppose most of us think Trump and W. claim the same base, the HAVES and the HAVE MORES because the media is actually referring all of us that didn't revolt when they told us Trump won...]
Remember 'the Lie Machine'?
Whatever you're willing to 'tolerate' becomes 'normal'.
It takes a united front to resist...anything!
But you knew that, right?
Thanks for letting me inside your woodshed!
