132. I appreciate your posts and thank you for your perspective.
Being a realist, I imagine that you are correct in your assessment. Other nations cannot rely on the USofA the way they once did, to be a social and moral leader and an economic leader. The thugs that are in power now are unpredictable and dangerous. They have put us in so much debt while all along fighting a war justified by lies to our nation and to the world.

To openly negotiate behind their backs is to risk pissing them off, to piss them off is to put your nation in danger. To not make plans for your own nation, should ours self-destruct, is unwise and would be a disservice to your citizens.

We ain't down yet, but we ain't exactly what we once were.
