Americans are learning the hard way that elections have consequences, and I’m loving it. Sadly, most still won’t learn. I said it before and I’ll continue to say it that Trump, Elon and their lackies are anarchists. They are destroying the government because they hate government (because it gets in their way) and they’re not going to put any of it back. He’ll be gone and we’ll have some broken, ghetto, incompetent government that can’t put the pieces back together and it’s what we’ll be stuck with for generations to come while other countries progress.

Trump is just a corrupt puppet making it possible somehow

You think? I tend to doubt it. Seeing as these are the same lessons since Reagan and they've only gotten more popular. They don't know why they hate government. That's the real lesson they won't learn.

It's the lesson the rest of the world will need to learn super, super quickly, too. It's about media. And therein is the clue as to why no one will learn it without a big effort.
