We are so screwed, as is Saudi Arabia when cheap-ass, undetectable drones can destroy their countries oil fields in a blink, as is every other country really when cheap-ass, undetectable drones can destroy their/our physical infrastructure in a blink. And don't think this new, very effective and cheap tactic will only be deployed in the Saudi Arabian/Yemen war. Terrorists and tin-pot dictators like Kim are paying close attention as to how they can become more threatening to the world order than any James Bond villain.

We are so screwed. Gas will be four bucks a gallon soon—cue the recession (but I actually think trump, just as he doesn't have the nerve to actually fire someone face-to-face, is afraid of a war—see "little Rocket Man" and nothing in NK; see Syria with a couple of bomb craters on a concrete airbase tarmac; see the threatened but not carried out Venezuela blockade; see bone spurs).

Here's hoping the unfit orange debacle's fears win out.

8. He's always trying to come across as a tough guy ...

but in reality he's a big marshmallow with little hands. He would be the first to run if someone challenged him to some fisticuffs .
