Well, that was certainly a strong opinion. As a Canadian, my investment is more observational, but if the country voted 51/49, then I hardly think "Everyone empathizes with Biden" and "Everyone wants Biden to win."

Biden has significant issues with appearing capable of holding power for four more months, let alone 4 more years.

I don't see it as realistic for Trump to pull the US from NATO, not unless policy switches from Russia to China as the most significant concern.

As for the assassination attempt, it was unbelievable that it happened AND that he moved his head just then--the subsequent, blatant misinformation and propaganda by the mainstream media and Dem talking heads is akin to Stalin's truth suppression post WWII. I still can't believe the MSM launched such a ludicrous attack on Trump and attempt on his life. Even the Canadian Liberal newsfeeds were ridiculous.

I don't envy your ride into November.

Lastly, for Ukraine--they have received a phenomenal amount of cash in support and I wonder how much that is making its way to a Zelensky retirement fund.

I agree with your take on Putin's motivation. That seems pretty clear but how the Great Bear hasn't crushed Ukraine is shocking.

Quite a mess. And then there's the climate.

I don't know if the world has ever been this fucked before.
