Trump: To defeat jina, we must become jina.

While Air B&B has done irreperable harm to the housing market, I'm not 100% convinced it should be banned. I propose if a house operates as an enterprise, it be taxed according to commercial rates, not residential. It would go a long way to resolving the inequities.

Can they? I'm not convinced. They flaunt the rules based international order are engaged in the most cynical version of realpolitik imaginable. China gets pissy if you exercise your own law in your own country while simultaneously demanding you respect their sovereignty and foreign policy goals and operating illegal underground "police stations" in other countries. Seriously, fuck China.

The US lost their reliable partner status because they are trying to compete with China by becoming like China.

We can trade, but no deep partnerships can occur with either of them, and we can't free trade or we'll get swallowed by the realpolitiks of it all. E.g. dumping to destroy strategic domestic industries etc.

No one will stick their neck out for the US. Trump must step down and return sanity to America. This doesn't fix relations, but it may signal the begining of a return to a healing position. Over a very long time, 50 years, the US may gradually recover some of that lost trust.

Hard to earn. Easy to lose. Even harder to win back. America, you played yourself.

Trump: I'll trade you a shitshow of stupidity and backstabbing friends while rivals watch me smear shit on my face and I blow my enemies. In exchange I burn my country to the ground for no reason.

China: Deal

Americans: Deal

Russians: Deal

Rest of the world: WTF!!! Ah, fuckit. Deal.

The DNC is captured opposition. AOC should run for President, under a new party. All non captured Dems need to join that party.

I had a lot of fun talking to one about how we could fully electrify a hobby farm without batteries, by using a high voltage DC overhead wire on a cable pulley system. Everything from electrical engineering, to cable selection, sourcing vendors and costs.

Mistakes were made, but it was genuinely helpful at times. I was impressed at how far it has come.
