A powerful idiot, in mental decline or not, is easily controlled.

If people riot he can open up the insurrection act and complete his takeover. Anybody else see this? No? You should!

It is easier to overthrow the government when there is no government. His actions are simple and transparent.
I am surprised that few see this shutdown as beneficial to him.

This is the tail end of the American decline. The lack of social programs, minimal education standards and greed have brought you to this point. Your american dream is now a nightmare. It was born of greed and nourished by both political parties.
You get what you pay for.

Canada and the US will have no choice because the big 3 have no choice but to produce them if they wish to stay in business. North America will change, kicking and screaming, but it has no choice, the power buyer has spoken

The state of California has said that all the vehicles it buys from 2035 on, must be electric, I will let you do the math but as you can imagine, the amount of vehicles Ca. buys is huge. They have single handedly transformed the auto industry by mandating this. Think CARB in the 70's

They have more than all but a few democrats as well.

I hear you. Its a struggle everyday. Keep up the hard work.

I very much enjoyed, and continue to enjoy, your semi serious takes. Thank you for bringing some levity to a very sad world!
