We are still in a cold war, only now it’s more complicated because more countries have nukes…including North Korea which is kind of a wildcard.
Check out Nuclear War by Annie Jacobsen. It’s a well-researched and horrifying scenario where deterrence fails because N Korea launches on the US. it takes you step-by-step through the decision process our government would take in response. Its gripping and pretty damn terrifying and shows just how delicate the whole situation is.
Among knuckleheads and MAGA cultists probably. Who gives an eff? Elections are won by the independents. Most people in this country are not complete degenerates (thank God). They will have a hard time voting for a convicted felon and by the time Biden is done messaging, folks in the swing states are going to know he is one.
Trump can say and do whatever he wants. It all sounds like a blur of horseshit to me. We’d be better off if he stuck with the NFTs and spare Bitcoin his grifty reputation.
