Sometimes Caitlin you are just right.

You should not look this gift horse in the mouth, the Russia Gate Distraction is making it hard for Trump to make progress on his agenda.

I believe there are Russian Bots and Russian Hacks but the links to the Trump Campaign are not proven and may not be real.

Still, Russian influence or not I still prefer Trump to Clinton and I think Trump is a Chump. Clinton is a smart, strong and evil, Trump is stupid, strong and misguided. Four years of gridlock is not too bad a price to pay considering the choices we were given.

The underlying power structures are still too inclined to military “solutions” too bad the gridlock does not extend to military actions. Too bad both side will agree to increasing the Military Budget.

While I am a deficit hawk, it is not because I worry about the debt but because I want to rein in the Federal Government and the corruption in DC.

I know you have stated fear of a superpower nuclear confrontation. I guess this fear has been something I have lived with for so long I don’t see the current events as raising the level of Nuclear Fear. We are still a couple minutes before Nuclear Midnight and those the adjust the clock are just guessing.

Do you know what a Pershing Missile is and why they were developed? I grew up in the era of Tactical Nukes.

Yes, the fear was less for a while, it ebbs and flows.

Is Nuclear Winter the answer to Global Warning?
