In terms of Russia, Kissinger's analysis of the Nation State suggests we have been far too shallow. There are very good reasons for the Russian people to feel exposed by the west's encroachment, and why they approve of Putin to the degree they do. Trump is no threat. I personally have not given up even one of my 25 Damns over him. Any threatened Rape and Pillage will likely just cause another economic implosion which we survived pretty well. I am curious, however, which of Bremmers 3 Americas Trump tends to, or what blend of the three. And what Trump thinks of Kissinger's recent defense of the nation state .. I know Kissinger is meeting with Trump. Presidential politics are unique. Presidential historians agree that, whatever a president has promised, he/she is always formed by unexpected, exogenous events. At a guess, they will be foreign affairs in Trump's case. I hope he takes the MoneyBall stance. -- Owen ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com FRIAM-COMIC http://friam-comic.blogspot.com/ by Dr. Strangelove -- Merle Lefkoff, Ph.D. President, Center for Emergent Diplomacy Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA merlelef...@gmail.com <mailto:merlelef...@gmail.com> mobile: (303) 859-5609 skype: merle.lelfkoff2
