Potential for crisis in the US right now is huge. Stock market disinvestment, plummeting foreign student/tourist numbers, disease outbreak, cascading government failure, security breakdown. Any number of different ways in which you could see something catastrophic happen, especially in combination.

Straight out of the Steve Bannon playbook.
Everything is unstable.
In fairness, could be either of them.
There’s a simple answer though, that won’t hurt or impoverish anyone (even the targets of this): TAX THE RICH AND CORPORATIONS.

Or, is everyone too scared to take Trump and his entourage on ?

It’s only April! Look at the chaos he has wreaked in 4 months. There’s 4 years of this to come.
What can we even do about it? How do I prepare?
Sadly for the decent folk of America , they will struggle to survive as the MAGA crew fail to respond when the inevitable threat 💩hits the fan.
Yes, this is all true, but Trump also managed a birdie on the 4th at Mar-e-Lago despite finding the rough from the tee.
See, not all bad.
For anyone who actually likes America, it is devastating to see the country like this. MAGA can go to Hell!! 😡
Less modelling without NOAA.
What you thought impossible a few weeks ago now seems more like a real possibility!
In fact, it might need a new word to capture the nature of just how many clusters of fuckery there are.
It?
All I can suppose is that Trump is being actively used by Putin to marginalise or even destroy NATO.
Was going to post a laughing emoji but it’s scary stuff.
However, as I'm not, I'm putting it down to a rebellion against rich right wing fascists.
Hopefully the scales will fall from their eyes
This is why I covet the schadenfreude that comes with watching psychopaths fall from such heights.
