The Great Trump Delusion: the Ongoing Pavloving of America
Pause and think about this for a minute. Since the beginning of the 21st century, over the past 18 years alone, we have witnessed an endless array of malevolence that is truly hard to fathom. Consider the following events that have taken place in less than two decades:
- The dot com bubble burst that witnessed the layoff of millions of Americans and the eradication of their life savings
- The horrific events of 9/11 that took the lives of 2,996 Americans and traumatized a nation
- Being lied into a war in Iraq that led to the death of more than 5,000 American service men and women and led directly or indirectly to the killing of more than one million Iraqis
- The Great Recession of 2008 that witnessed the grandest theft in recorded history as millions of Americans were dispossessed of their homes while the same Wall Street crooks who gambled with our savings and livelihood were rewarded with trillions in bailouts and golden parachutes
