I get stressed when things do not happen according to established rules of the game, out of the norm and the latest series of events made me very uneasy.
I’m specifically referring to the things that USA is doing of late, developments happening in and around Venezuela, its aftermath, withdrawing of its missions, etc and, not to mention, the additional nonsenses that will likely happen in the next 2 years. Such belligerent and bully behaviour is not what one would expect of a superpower - one that’s been a responsible leader in world affairs, until recent years…
I say so becos I know there will be direct impact on me. I do not know the matter deep enough to specifically pinpoint how it will impact me and the timeline it will happen but, off the cuff, I can say it will have implications on geopolitical stability, economics, security, etc and all these will filter down to our day to day lives, cost of living, etc eventually.
And so, it makes it even more important for me to do what is within my control - to make sure whoever I put in charge of running this island state is of sound mind, think long term, provide stable hands and has the people in the centre of their heart and policies. Only then, can they steer this little island well amidst this turbulent times.
Sighs…

Correction -- additional nonsense that will happen over the next THREE years. That's how much time is left on his term.
😱 my immediate focus is the mid-terms… let’s hope things swing correctly… it might just soften things a bit…
And oh, I read in the news that he said “I am governed by my own morality and not any international rules/ norms”… or something to that effect. Duhhh! Certainly not the right person to talk about morality, given his background & conduct.
That's right....someone with no morality is governed by his own morality?
