You do understand no other economy approaches ours, excep for China, and they’re not going to get involved. And certainly, no other military is close to ours, right? So, it isn’t a commandment. It is just a fact. It is a fact--we agree on something--wow! But I am sure that we disagree on the meaning of this fact. The rest of the world has seen that the US can elect a know-nothing who throws his weight around. Or rather, throws the weight of the US around. And everyone sees that they cannot trust the US with the power that has been ceded to it. So while Trump and his followers can bask in the glow of being the biggest, baddest dude on the block for the moment, the ROW is getting together to see how they mitigate this problem. And those discussions will get very very serious if the Republicans maintain control of Congress in 2019 and Trump is reelected in 2020. That will be the legacy of Trump.
