That reminds me, I need to read the Fall of Rome. Gas chambers are hyperbole, but isolation and divisiveness are not, autocracy or theocracy are not, destruction of human rights are not, looking backward instead of forward are not, abandoning friends, allies, causes around the world are not. Throwing away what US has done right is not. Turning us into an anti-developed shithole that has no friends and no one respects is not. Turning us inward so we always fight each other is not. For all Trump’s rhetoric against China, we do ourselves more harm than they ever could
