An Open Letter to Donald Trump
Dear former President Trump,
Happy New Year!
This open letter offers you some unsolicited advice for your 2024 Presidential bid.
Asia without America?
No, it will not happen soon, either, just like the case in the Mideast (The Mideast without America?) and Europe (Europe without America?)!
America has been hugely influential in Asia since the end of WWII at least. But this influence has been significantly reduced over the past few decades, thanks to the dramatic comeback of China. As China continues to claim the 21st century, American influence in Asia, as well as elsewhere in the world, will gravely diminish.
By “Asia,” I will limit it to East Asia mostly in this post.
Europe without America?
No, it will not happen soon!
A Google search of the same title has resulted in just one book: Europe without America?, whose cover is highlighted above. It was published in 1988. But Europe is still with America today. Why is that?
The Mideast without America?
No, it will never happen – America will forever be involved in the Mideast for one simple reason: Israel!
Other than that, America, or American influence over there to be more precise, would soon be done and gone!
Why?
How do I dance ballroom competitively?
In a previous post (It is never too late to dance!), I summarized my 7-year-old ballroom dance career with some highlights. In this post, I will provide some details ……
It is never too late to dance!
Early in 2015, I, at age 55, started taking lessons in ballroom dancing. It has turned out to be the best thing that happened to me over the past decade!…
Ron DeSantis for President 2024?
As the 2024 Presidential election gets underway (Trump announces 2024 run for president), let me make a strong case for “Ron DeSantis for President 2024”.
Correctly Assessing President Trump
Again, Donald Trump is running for President (Trump announces 2024 run for president). So, there is no better time than now to assess his Presidency, thus ruling out his candidacy…
Three fake American intellects?
To me, the top three fake American intellects after the end of World War II are Milton Friedman, Ayn Rand, and Francis Fukuyama. Their works achieved some success in their respective times, but failed to stand the test of time!
Voting is overrated!
The 2022 midterm election is over. Regardless of the final tally, here are two certainties for America:
- The GOP will become the majority in the House, which means payback time for the Democrats, including the possibility of having President Biden impeached.
- The American government will continue to be dysfunctional, and America will thus continue to decline, precipitously.
Why and how can America be so hopelessly in a rabbit hole?
Voting is overrated!
