When the results of the 2020 presidential election were announced, all of us democracy-loving peoples of the entire planet breathed a collective sigh of relief now that we knew the "adults" would be back in the room and guiding our country with a steady hand and a clear mind.

By the way, I seem to recall some lawn signs in front of houses back in 2020 which announced that the person who lived there would support any "sentient being" for president. I wonder how disappointed such people are now.

Brown University has concluded that the U.S. has spent $14 trillion on the wars in the Middle East since 9/11 which amount represents close to one-half of our national debt of $34 trillion. According to Brown U., 1/3 to 1/2 of the war on terror trillions has been handed over to U.S. defense contractors. The U.S. has lost these wars. And it's in the process of losing more. So clearly, winning wars is not the goal, just waging them. Joe Biden is the senile warmonger for the job. That he actually campaigned on ending the Forever Wars in 2020 is one of his more spectacular lies.
