LOL Obama's growing economy. Worst recovery ever. "New normal" under 2%.

Try comparing with the rest of the world instead of gobbling up stats in a vacuum that back up your biases.

Sorry I'm not a globalist like you.

Sorry you're not smart enough to understand our economy doesn't exist in a vacuum.

No,I really mean that I feel sadness and regret over this fact.

Trump is a puppet who will be run by those who actually know how to govern, Carson will be no different. It's funny how "Drain the swamp" is turning into "put a nice face on every department and keep the establishment safely hidden making all the calls." Sad that housing is one of the departments that needs a major direction change but is now just going to be status quo.

Still holding out hope Trump doesn't go down the Chinese rabbit hole or that China backs off, I'm not even sure what a war with China looks like in this day and age. Satellite war in Korea? Philippines? Japan? Taiwan?

Well the abyss also gazes back. And its discouraging. And you end up joining the hopeless Deplorables in their own thing. Just make memes and be cynical, and do it for the lulz. Lets just hope he doesn't bungle Obama's growing economy. In the human services we're pretty much in panic mode because Republicans have a really funny idea of what a War on Poverty is. But it doesn't matter to you guys because you're on your parents insurance til you're 26 and Trump is going to make America great, whatever the fuck that is, while repealing the law that gave 20 million more Americans high quality health care, because that isn't a great achievement to people with capitalist morality. I mean, if they're healthy they're working more, and if they're working and healthy it is harder to gentrify neighborhoods.

This is the powder keg. Depends how hard China wants to go to achieve its complete borders, which includes Taiwan and the South China Sea.

Ideally it will stay regional if it happens. If it goes global expect to see China, Russia, Turkey, North Korea, and Pakistan align together. US, of course fucking Australia, Japan, South Korea, India, NZ, and ofc Britain. Iran is a total wildcard. The Baltic States would be wise to join on behalf of the Americans because they have the most at stake (Besides South Korea).
