And Trump will survive and almost certainly be re-elected. Especially if the opposition is Bernie, Beto, or Biden - or, and don't dismiss this out of hand, Hillary. And we should learn a lot about isms: perhaps most importantly the difference between narcissism and fascism (nobody is getting that difference, so far). And it would serve "the opposition" to get a clue about the fact that the vast majority of Trump supporters do not suffer from racism, sexism, 'genderism', "me-first-ism," etc. Instead recognize that their primary affliction is individualism - and even libertarian-ism (despite some obvious contradictions from the religious among them) - along with corollaries of "anti-government control-ism," "personal-responsibility-ism," and "my-values-are-just-as-valid-as-yours-ism." davew On Wed, Dec 26, 2018, at 9:36 AM, Marcus Daniels wrote: Dear Pollyanna, It will end and we’ll all learn an important lesson?

I hope Mueller will finish his report in 2019 and I assume president Trump will either resign or be impeached like Nixon, since the House belongs now to the democrats (Did you know "Mueller" is the German version of "Miller" btw? As you know a miller is someone who creates the flour we need for life) Then Donald will spend the rest of his life in prison or seek asylum in Russia. This would be the end of "Trumpism". But who knows, it's a complex world. In hindsight we will learn more about "Trumpism" as well. At the moment it seems to be a mixture of the original Italian fascism and post-soviet authoritarianism, i.e. the rule of an authoritarian leader who demands absolute loyalty and trusts only his family. I believe we can only decode social systems if we really understand the various forms of *-isms like fascism, nazism or communism, and how they are related. -Jochen ============================================================ 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 archives back to 2003: http://friam.471366.n2.nabble.com/ FRIAM-COMIC http://friam-comic.blogspot.com/ by Dr. Strangelove ============================================================ 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 archives back to 2003: http://friam.471366.n2.nabble.com/ FRIAM-COMIC http://friam-comic.blogspot.com/ by Dr. Strangelove
