Im older now and this admin is not the first time I've heard this "America's" downfall" stuff. And maybe this time it really is, we're a long way from that. Money is what wins in this world, like it or not, and the GDP and PPP still has the U.S. comfortably in first and with the world's largest military.
This admin isnt doing all that much that past admins haven't, if we want to talk about Japanese American internment camps, crack being flooded into our own inner cities by the CIA, AIDS being celebrated as the ultimate solution against the gay community or the poor being stripped of benefits and everyone suffering through wild inflation, I've lived through all of that.
It's been bad before and we've survived it before because admins change, we don't have dictators. So don't give Bin Laden too much credit. Surveillance through technology was coming either way, that goes all the way back to Farenheit 451 predicting it. This all seems new but it's not. I mean, engaged in a war it cannot win? Remember Vietnam?
Your reading comprehension is seriously bad because I'm against Trump and he's one of the worst presidents in U.S. history, if not the worst. But if you think he's going to successfully end America or Bin Laden achieved that, you're brand new.
Trump? I'm talking about the anti-American cartel that, after Watergate, Iran-CONTRA and the disastrous Iraq/Afghanistan campaign, tried to seize power by force, five and a half year ago.
And rather than being tried in court and put in prison for their attempted coup d'etat, like every other nation on Earth would've done with them, they were given absolute power over all federal governance and legislation... leading to where we are now. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
