        My personal take is that there were three times the US took a giant wrong turn.

        LBJ taking Vietnam from a small war to a massive one. He couldn’t win, and it opened the door for Nixon to come in.

        Reagan elected.

        War on Terror.

        Trump is the result of those three…

        So when do you see that the hammer dropped?

      I’m finding a sick sort of comfort in reading about the bush administration and how horrible I didn’t realize it was. A guy named scooter revealed a CIA asset out of spite because her husband disagreed with the Iraq War. What a shitshow.
