I've just returned from the future
And I can tell you for a fact that the fate of our country is on the ballot in 2028.
It doesn't matter whether you are Democrat or Republican, if the other party wins then the country is doomed. Nor does it matter that the two presidential candidates are the most hated in American history.
The other guy is an existential threat, so that it's absolutely necessary that you vote for Democrat/Republican, and not demand that your party deliver on your basic needs. If the other guy wins then he/she will be an agent of Russia/China.
In my time travels I've discovered that this is also true in 2032 and 2036, except that it's even more important. It's unfortunate that there are no more primaries or debates or third parties, but those are not things that we can afford anymore.
The country has never been more polarized, according to the MSM. We are on the brink of civil war, according to the MSM. In fact, every part of society that is controlled by billionaires, whether its cable news, talk radio, or the political class agrees that the country is so divided that democracy probably won't survive.
Fortunately there is the military, which is engaged in a dozen wars around the world against terrorists, and we can all support them.
It's curious how so many people in the future are talking about the Fall of Rome.

Hope you enjoyed your travels.
Being a "glass in half empty" type with the candidates that are
running in 2024 there is no certainty that there will even be elections in 2028.
If the Dims thought they could get away with it,
there wouldn't be elections in 2024.
There is no justice. There can be no peace.
Anything the American people
do that can be construed as a threat to the existing government could be grounds for martial law a cancelation of the 2024 election.
Are we being pushed to that or is it a natural course of events?
Basically, one party wants to seize power, and the other wants to consolidate it.
IMHO
Neither Russia nor China is our enemy.
Neither Iran nor Venezuela are threatening America.
Cuba is a dead horse, stop beating it.
Not to worry
One of the A.I.s jobs is to rewrite history, so tomorrow forever will be better than today. Just ask President Musk.
It's not the fall of Rome, it's the fall of...
the Roman Republic. And the creation of the Empire, which lasted another 400 or so years in the west and longer in the east. So, is Trump the first Emperor? Or Biden? I don't think either are because they aren't smart enough, but eventually, perhaps really soon, a 'leader' will end up being politically savvy, and lucky, enough to be like Augustus and set up everything. Perhaps it's already the empire but we won't admit it (yet). So maybe Jamie Dimon is the Emperor? Someone like him? In Rome the emperor always, always had to be able to control the troops - at least some of them. Seems like we are getting to be like that too...
