5. What are the odds of an American president deliberately
Tue Mar 10, 2026, 05:58 PM

destroying our capabilities in science, environment, health, national security - basically all our former strengths? Unthinkable? But here we are.

What if his intention is to also destroy the most capable military in the world? Would boots on the ground in Iran accomplish that or at least come close to that? Unthinkable, right? God forbid that that's where we are now, but at this point can we trust his 'morality' to restrain him? Based on what we've seen so far .... doesn't look good. We need Democrats AND REPUBLICANS to reclaim the power to stop him before it's too late. NOW!!!
