My favourite computer game soundtrack of all time was the CD32 version of Captive 2. I spent a lot of time playing that and never got sick of it.

If other democracies want to help democracy in America right now, they can start selling our treasuries.

So Trump being an authoritarian dictator, attempting a coup, likely raping girls, and being a Russian asset didn’t end his Presidency.
But Europeans and Asians selling U.S. treasuries and tanking our bond markets could.
