I'm not fantasizing how the US might fall like the Soviet Union. I'm trying to lay out how Putin must be fantasizing that, and I'm inferring that his meetings with Trump would have been unlikely, since Trump would have been offended by Putin's reason for supporting Trump (Putin's reason being that Trump would be Putin's weapon for laying waste to the US).<br /><br />As to the substance of your point, I think the US is in good shape mainly for the wealthiest 1%, not for the rest of the country. I agree that the effects of some of Trump's policies will take years to manifest, but we don't even know Trump will be in power for a full term. So predicting one way or the other doesn't seem wise at this point. The current political situation looks chaotic and up-in-the-air.Benjamin Cainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00661999592897690031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6320802302155582419.post-59686054145221580272017-03-08T14:44:45.677-05:002017-03-08T14:44:45.677-05:00Russia's trick is working.

We want revenge against America, to reduce that country to ashes without our having to fire a single shot on American soil. Trump is our man, because he’s nothing more than an agent of destruction." Quite a fantasy you've cooked up there. Too bad it won't come to pass. The US is in quite good shape actually, the outlook for the economy and stock market look favorable. There will likely be a recession in Trumps first term, but not anything too terrible. I'm afraid the collapseniks are going to be disappointed in four years. They should be looking at the environment, something Trump IS likely to collapse, but the worst effects of his policies will probably take a while to manifest. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
