Trump might as well have been created from scratch by China for the sole purpose of guaranteeing that they will become the world leader in science and technology, and thus the dominant superpower, while the US fades into obscurity.

He couldn't have done a better job of it.

And Putin’s Puppet, aiding them in their war against Ukraine, keeping that oil and gas money flowing, curtailing much needed support to the Ukraine.

And enabling Israel's genocide in Gaza and beyond.

And enriching and shielding Saudi Arabia.

He helps every Evil Empire and does everything possible to destroy the US economy, democracy, and alienate our once allies.
