Re <<nothing left but its grin>>
Was wandering and now wondering, which of Stratfor’s watch & brief, if any, is worth following
Believe we know longer need to tag the Saudi MBS issue as believe enough believe they know what for why happened how, and the remaining is just ordained by necessity, back to business as usual. If MBS is a true reformer irrespective of whatever else may or not be true, in the big picture, then a hiccup albeit a big one.
If otherwise, then the dynasty eventually would be lost, and be dramatic.
Whichever the case, a show, of how reliable team USA (comprised of the various branches, deep root, and the estates) is a partner.
The rest of Stratfor’s watch & brief perhaps contain only one matter of importance, w/ the rest just decorations.
Re the unmentioned mid-term, am guessing short term nothing matters and long term consequential, only that at least half the electorates do not realise, perhaps bit less than half do not care, and maybe a sliver less than 0.01% cannot make any difference, and could be all have an opinion founded or otherwise.
Iow, it could well be that the mid-term shall only be early-warning on how dysfunctional rule-by-making-up-rules shall become, and then it would be approximately 50% against near-enough 49%, marking time to 2020 when trump wins again.
Such would not necessarily be a negative for the episode may prepare the world for whatever comes next, good or bad. Who can know? Maybe NYC real estate method can impel all manner of desired to come true. Let’s find out by experimentation, even as we do whatever needs doing to hedge downsides, substantial they can be.
I had inadvertently worked w/ trump-esque types and more and much more I recognise so. I believe such folks collect opportunists and aggregate enemies, as they plow through what they do. It is a process that is very interesting, just not for those plowed until and unless they make an absorbing game out of the experience. I suspect trump is better at the gaming than most, and should one better make appearance, true exigency does as well. The so-called Anti-trump cannot by definition be less controversial than the trump, except he / she be anti- and is not trump.
Enough electorates wished for Anti-Clinton, and they got what they wanted; admittedly the economy seems ok, and stock market net net is up. Maybe a coincidence but could be MAGA, time shall tell. |
