Select a weak leader as a vessel for our interest. Surround your candidate with some cultish ideology, present them as the chosen one. Continously repeat this frame through every institution you own. Become unimpeachable by the threat of a civil war. Do whatever you want.

Why does America hate itself?
Inferiority complex because they have no culture/are just all about commerce?
Trump is the only overtly anti American president in American history.
Even Obama didn't dare express his blithering anti Americanism publicly like this.
Their hate for America is infinite, and America elected them twice.

What a f****ed up system
Europe has largely abandoned the Football Scoreboard Strategy, refocusing on supply chains.
America has retained it.
The European part of Euro - America is now declining slower than America.

Over 30 countries to hold London talks on reopening Strait of Hormuz
——
Military officials from over 30 countries are set to meet in London for two days starting Wednesday to push forward efforts to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and develop concrete operational plans, according to the British government.
Britain’s Ministry of Defense said Wednesday’s meeting would build on progress achieved during last week’s discussions.
"The task, today and tomorrow, is to translate the diplomatic consensus into a joint plan to safeguard freedom of navigation in the Strait and support a lasting ceasefire," said UK defense minister John Healey.
"I am confident that, over the next two days, real progress can be made."
Britain added that the talks aim to move military planning forward for reopening the Strait of Hormuz once conditions permit, following a sustainable ceasefire. Attendees are expected to cover issues such as military capabilities, command structures, and potential force deployment to the region.

I wonder if people are aware that the OPEC oil embargo of 1973 lasted six months.
Yet the inflationary effects of that six month embargo were felt for the rest of the decade.
