I disagree re: Biden. He is destroying America and seriously weakening our position in the world, and through that, helping to bring down the West.

The problems we’re facing in the world, ME and elsewhere, are a direct consequence of the Obama/Biden regime and the last three years have been a doubling down on their disastrous policies. He has to go. As bad a choice as Trump is, he is the lesser of evils and far more willing to support Israel and deal with Iran. America and the world will not recover from another 4 years of Biden/Harris, which would undoubtedly end up being Harris, as Biden will not serve a full term and very possibly is not even calling the shots presently, given his cognitive issues. As bad as Trump is, Biden is worse. As bad as Biden is,

Harris would be an unmitigated disaster.

So trump is the danger to world peace…?

Bidens record includes the start of 2 major conflicts under his watch, versus trump zero. Trump is the architect of the abraham accords, while biden poured money into gaza and iran by lifting sanctions trump put in place. And don’t forget, Trump pressured the NATO partners into spending more on defense. They all thought he was crazy at the time, but they’re doing exactly that right now. So I’d say keep looking at the facts!

Very good analysis. I agree with your assessment of the current political landscape and I agree that a second Trump presidency is fraught with risks for global stability. His behaviour vis a vis Putin during his first term was very odd. I think he is fascinated with dictators and resentful of existing American allies, which may embolden the non-democratic powers which are already working to undermine democracy everywhere. Trump isn't that big on democracy himself unless he's on the winning side.
