(1.) By calling the Iranian *people*, as opposed the current regime, "volatile, difficult, unpredictable" Trump displays his life long racism. He is yet another blot on the global reputation of the American people and every individual among them, myself included. America was built by slaves on stolen land, preys on weaker nations, treats women, transfolk, Queers, People of Color, minors, and the poor as second class citizens, but Trump is actually *proud* of it. So are the #MAGAts who support him. They're no better than he is. Already, some of them are beginning to realize it and defect. Even Tucker Carlson and MTG condemn him in public. There is hope for society.

The irony is that with a little fixing up, America could be a paradise on earth and a shining beacon for the world. That will not happen until we the people seize control of everyday life from the oligarchs. This seizure need not be violent. All we have to do is stop working for them.

(2.) Trump is the "volatile, difficult, unpredictable" president of the only country even to actually *use* nuclear weapons (and against civilians no less).

America is not the "land of the free and the home of the brave". America is the land of bullies, cowards and greed. It will stay that way until we the people collectively eschew our compliance. Our last, best hope is a #GeneralStrike, starting today. I personally have been on strike for most of my adult life. You could do this, too, simply by working off the books and paying your share of society's upkeep, not as taxes to the government, but directly to the people in need that capitalism leaves by the wayside.
