Does not really calm my nerves that much, so to speak, it's still way too many people that refuse to see what happens in the real world and inhabits a fantasy land of their own design.

Get an anti-anxiety script then? ;)

The US can find you anywhere.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

I assume that most of the people who think that way don't have passports.

Loyal Trumpites frequently claim that he is "fighting for them".  I'd really like to know exactly what that means.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I'd like read something where Trumpists describe what they mean.

It usually can't even find itself on a map.  :P

Sounds like it should take a year off on a beach somewhere.

Can you recommend one? Yemen seems a good place to find.

That would be confirmation bias.  Better to find itself on a nice beach in New Zealand.  That way they might realize left wing does not equal Satan incarnate.

New Zealand doesn't have any oil, does it?

Back in the 90s I had this board game called Supremacy.  It was kind of a modern-day Risk with nuclear weapons.  There were also resource cards - Saudi Arabia naturally had the richest oil resources in the game.

There were expansions to the game.  One of them gave ahistorical resource allocations.  But it wasn't random because they were just cards.  So anyways if you played with that deck of resource cards New Zealand was the Saudi Arabia of the world when it came to oil.
