Je pense que nous sommes entrés dans une zone dangereuse, par l’effet de la folie de Trump, sans limitation par un entourage lui-même en partie fanatique (exemple : Stephen Miller – c’est sa femme qui a commis un tweet avec le motif du drapeau américain recouvrant le Groenland.)
Dans l'élan donné par l'opération au Venezuela, son hubris pousse Trump vers la Colombie, Cuba, le Groenland. Il y aura probablement le Canada. La possibilité d'une intervention en Iran a été évoquée…
Qui va arrêter Trump ?

@whencyclopedia Good to see these images & context. I worked briefly on the harbour excavations at Caesarea Maritima, an extraordinary example of Herod's #vision & #hubris.

~ Arachne ~
Athena punished Arachne for her unwillingness to admit that her weaving skill was owed to the goddess, even in part, as well as her boastful arrogance. Spiders' scientific class name is Arachnida, after Arachne.

YES! A thousand times yes!
But he won't. He thinks he's smarter than everyone. It can't be HIS fault. He's the smartest guy in every room. It must be someone else's fault.
He'll be the GM until he dies, or he's drooling on his own diaper and Stephen takes it to court, whichever comes first.

"The man [Youngkin] we saw before the results streamed in was a guy absolutely filled to the brim with all the confidence in the world. Because how could he not be? He was so confident he put his reputation on the line with these elections, promising a whole list of things he’d push hard for should the Republicans take the legislature.
And then?
He ate shit."
