It's premature, but Trump may be following my advice on Iran. All I did was lay out a path of least resistance, and in my experience, this is the most likely path followed by man and state. The trick is to perceive how how the "state" views "least resistance," and how it defines "easier."

DC consistently does the easy thing, choosing immediate pleasantries over its peasants, preferring to borrow for wars and nice drapes over building for the next generation. Your willing sacrifice to the state is a precious curiosity, because the state itself sacrifices nothing and has no concept of the greater good.

As Kim Dotcom recently explained to Tucker Carlson, we have a government that spies, lies, propagandizes its population, constantly seeks to enrich itself, and is wasting its last breath fighting a losing battle to retain the label of global superpower while being crushed by $40 Trillion of unpayable debt. When that house of cards falls down, the whole world with be harmed, and what's worse, the chance of the US using a nuclear weapon in lieu of paying back debt or preventing its collection is far higher than many people assume.
