    This administration is just beyond embarrassing. Imagine what we look like on the world stage. Good Lord.

      Well, from Australia it is both fascinating and yet produces a really sad feeling for you guys. I really wish you well, but don’t see a way out for you.

      Secondly, what happens in the US hardly ever just stays in the US. You guys are an idea factory. But not all of them are good ideas. I hope that our institutions are trusted enough to whether the coming storm.

        I’ll admit, even the optimal path in front of us is not looking too good. And I’m the guy in the office that’s saying “no worries” most of the time. A Biden win still leaves us with a corrupt supreme court and equally corrupt and deadlocked congress.

        You guys are an idea factory

        Thanks for saying this. Perhaps our greatest export is our culture, but it would seem that’s the good, bad, and ugly all at once. I really do wish it was only the good stuff.

      Keeping turning that other cheek and eventually it’ll be pleasant. Or at least, that’s what my educational sources from the Hub tell me.
