TrumpTwitterToday: "I told you Putin was a smart guy!"
As we bid a thankful adieu to 2016, 2017 is busting to roll out its unique take on life, history, death and all other manner of life forces.
Donald Trump used to be just a guy on TV. Now he runs the world.
How in the fuck did that happen?
There is an added measure of pain and bitterness in our annual assessment of 2016 as a prognostication for what is to come. As wretched as our 2016 In Memoriam list looks, Trump and Putin doubling down with each other using nuclear threats offers me the deja vu comfort of my Lake Erie beach boyhood living past the imminent threat of the Soviets nuking Toledo, Ohio.
Which is to say the ever shifting sands of the possibility of millions dying from nuclear warfare becomes "reality" far too soon.
What will be will be. Que sera sera.
