lee, please hire a better editor, you are ruining our brand.

i wish them well, those who wish to transform america, assuming for the better. but i see no sign that they understand how it has come to need transforming. so what's chances of success? not far north of zero. what's worse, every politician is the problem, and their viewpoint is inevitably looking in the wrong direction.

there is only one democracy, helvetia. it is a prosperous and progressive nation, much more so than the usa.

fortunately, most usa security secrets should be made public. less fortunately, the usa constitution was a contemptible document at birth and hasn't improved. it is entirely responsible for the standard of national management that is totally focused on enriching the already rich. trump's presence in the whitehouse is a clear demonstration, but by no means the worst. since there is no visible discomfort about these matters in usa public life, improvement is not going to happen.

it's not a referendum, you only have referendum in a democracy, and the usa ain't a democracy. call it a plebiscite- since you don't have democracy, yer only a pleb.

and stop wringing your hands about the kurds. they have been betrayed by every american president who took an 'interest' in the middle east. trump is not the worst in that list. the american political system is hopelessly ineffective, it is the chief reason the usa is decaying at home and abroad. and the politician parasites who infest it will not fix what supports them in great prosperity. since the usa is not a democracy, no one can change it, except those who have no interest in change. short of revolution, of course.

trump's second most important asset is the democratic party. they had nothing to say about the rust belt, endless time for the bankers and brokers. of course, his primary asset is the ex-democratic voters who have finally figured there will be no help from there. much is made of the fact that trump is a phony, looting the treasury for the rich. but that is not important to the 'globalized.' they are sending a message to the democrats, that your lackeying to rich has been noted, and will be punished at whatever cost. of course, usa problems are more fundamental, and likely to be fatal. a constitution designed to sustain plutocracy has been very successful in that aim. and plutocracy is a self-consuming political structure. compare the quality of the people in the american government with those of china. it is not accident that china is flourishing while the west flounders. the trade war will be seen as trump's viet nam.
