4. Totally unsurprising.

It pains me that both unbelievable and unsurprsing are the new normal for this once proud nation.
This ends in disaster for the planet and too many in Europe and Asia are ignoring that fact.

The implosion of the USA into chaos and eventually total collapse is NOT a good thing for anyone, yet, they are sitting by idling twiddling their thumbs and allowing this to happen without any attempts to slow or stop it.

The lessons of the 20th century have been forgotten.
The chaos of the 19th and 20th centuries are going to be replayed with more destructive weapons and less honorable leaders.
What could possibly go wrong? (yeah, that's sarcasm...)
