re: #39 Myron Falwell
It’s tough watching a republic die. Even worse when the ensuing rebellion against such totalitarianism acts will result in outright anarchy and a total disintegration of order.
And when Bannon orders the execution of protestors, he’ll create political martyrs that will be used against him.
This is the collapse of Romania all over again.
More like the disintegration of Yugoslavia. There will end up being 3 to 6 balkanized states that will be fighting each other for decades. Putin will laugh all the way till the Chinese squish him leaving the EU and Chinese Empire as the two long-term powers.
