Is this Christmas 1928 or 1940?

2. Probably 1940.

We are still expecting to stay out of the new European war, don't understand how profoundly things will change in a very few years.

Please read "The Fourth Turning Is Here" my Neil Howe. It pretty much explains everything.

3. I'm not worried about that.

The only entity that would start a war would be Russia and they can barely handle Ukraine. They’d have zero chance in places like Poland and Finland. The only country they may be able to conquer is Moldova but that’s far from a given.

4. I believe Putin will next

invade Freedonia.

5. When the incoming president is an idiot, and you know it,

comparisons with 1928 or 1940 are impossible.

6. Christmas 1980 on steroids n/t

11. Trump is using Hoover as a model to copy. Tariffs

and deporting Mexicans was exactly what Herbert Hoover did that accelerated us into a Great Depression.
