Male, pale, allegedly stale. Lefty, semi-retired former IT programmer, turned business leader and company director. Opinions are all mine.

Both China and the USA doing political purges of their senior armed forces leadership. I suppose at least the US doesn’t execute those purged (yet).

I’m a regular, maybe even frequent, scooter rider around the CBD. About 50% of pedestrians are Meandethals. They can’t walk in a straight line, and change direction without any apparent awareness of their surroundings or anyone around them. FFS.

So is Trump’s Board of Peace just going to be a coalition of right-wind dictators minus China?

History should save some of its most critical judgement for those that work for and enable Trump.

They know clearly who and what he is.
