Extreme rightest and Liberal populists are taking over the world right now. Steve Bannon has been in Europe trying to unite Liberal and conservative populists there. So, it is quite possible that Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders or their like might be elected next in the populist atmosphere of the world right now. It almost seems inevitable given the craziness of everything so far.
Though I see myself as a libertarian Independent (neither democrat nor Republican) I am a little taken aback by populists of every ilk simply because they tend to be for Mob Rule (in other words "let's go hang whoever we don't want to be alive". It smacks of "Lock her up" towards Hillary or "impeach the Motherfucker" of liberal populists towards Trump. Both of which smack to me of a Lynch mob mentality which is the last thing we need on earth now (unless you want to nuke the world and depopulate it completely out of existence).
So, thinking that the world is crazy like the 1930s and 1940s is exactly what I see happening now. It all depends how the millions are going to die this time. This seems to be the only question at this point. Remember World war II killed about 100 million people and the following Cold War also killed about 100 million people between 1945 and 1990.
I'm thinking this time it will be starvation rather than war that is going to kill 100 to 500 million people or maybe a billion people this time during the next 20 to 30 years here on earth.
Long after Trump is dead and gone we will be haunted by all the damage he has done to mankind's civilizations here on earth.
but here's the really strange thing which is a complete paradox:
the billions Trump causes not to be born or to die in the next 50 years here on earth likely will prevent human extinction between 2080 and 2090.
This is just how crazy this century really is.
So, Trump is buying the human race about 50 years 2080 to 2130 to get our act together to figure out how not to go extinct.
This appears to be from an intuitive's point of view EXACTLY what is presently going on this century and into the next.
To the best of my ability I write about my experience of the Universe Past, Present and Future
