Remember When...(Taking it Back to 2021) || Peter Zeihan

I'm sure this isn't a shock, but a lot of folks have asked what I think of the incoming trump administrations cabinet nominations. Before I delve in Monday's video into the simple and forgiving world of American domestic politics, I think it would be best to review where this all began. In this special weekend edition we reach into the way-back machine and go back to New Year's 2021 when the world seemed so different, and so similar.

True Americans should be utterly appalled by the transparently political convictions of Donald Trump (whether they like Trump or not). It's because of things like a corrupt justice system, that make me never want to live in Moscow or China or Any other banana republic. Biden needs to GO.

Peter seems to think Trump's felony convictions, are the final stake in the heart of the vampire. There are probably some who think of These felony convictions as a crucifixion of a messiah. Those are only the the extreme minority opinions of American voters.

It was actually the conservative CDU that shut down nuclear power in Germany. Not the green party.
