“It may be possible that he has a smidgen more data than you do. I don't know for sure that his intent is beneficial or poilitical.
I do know that if he tried to leave Afghanistan quickly he would be massacred by the abominably stupid right wing politicians who got us there without any glimmer of a notion of how to get out or the will to accomplish something while we are there.
America's intentional refusal to educate its citizenry in the history of this world and the types of errors that ought not to be repeated is what keeps us in thrall to the military industrial complex which makes great profits from human deaths and misery.
Gun and armament manufacturers insist they exist to insure peace. They have insured peace to the tune of millions of dead and maimed people and trillions of dollars misused. Fortunes have been fattened by such peacekeeping. Multitudes have been starved and neglected in the effort.”

She wore designer pieces regularly during the campaign, even as her inexpensive J Crew and similar pieces got all the press. While I don't agree with many of her aesthetic choices since arriving in the WH, she has been consistent throughout in that she mixes and matches high- and low-end designers.”
