8. I agree more or less. MAGA is a dying disorganized mess. It's days are numbered.

HOWEVER: Trump is a cornered dying animal. He is going to become more dangerous every day until he finally dies. I can only imagine the various disasters he will cause before that happens.

And no matter what happens to Trump, the economy is teetering on the edge of a major crash. I'm talking about a crash of 1929 dimensions. Of course Trump will make it worse. That is going to become a huge issue for all of us.

Bottom line: We are in for a very rough time for the next several years. I feel like the only positive is that in '26 and '28 we can and will elect people that will be able to start the process of digging us out from under this mess.
