Wild talk. You have a dispute over foreign policy. Where was all that talk about prosecutions when Democrats voted against you?

I don't know what nationality you are but we Americans are sick of fighting Russia and other countries needlessly. The Ukrainians have lost 400K men and women fighting the Russians. That's more than we Americans lost in WWII.

It's an unwinnable war. The only people who benefit are the Military Industrial Complex weapons makers. Why do you support them so vehemently?

We know the rats are insane. That's just a fact. They are the enemy within. I wish we could do more to oust and prosecute them for their crimes too. They have managed to brainwash a large swath of the population into supporting their fascist Marxist authoritarian ideology. Frankly, I don't get it but I guess the dumbing down of K-16 has something to do with it. People are literally graduating with a 4 year college degree but a barely a 6th or 8th grade true education.

What is your solution to that problem?

I am Spanish, but I grew up mostly in Asia, lived in the US for almost 40 years, married an American and have American children, who live in the US. We retired to Spain because it is much nicer here than California.

As for my US experience, been there, done that. I worked in the defense-aerospace industry, and then in the energy industry.

This is a funny, mixed up world, and anything real (as in tech and industrial reality) is an international mishmash. And it has been so for a very long time.

The US is providing part of its vast surplus of armament to Ukraine. It is up to the Ukrainians how long they are willing to fight. Given that, originally, at least half of US military equipment was intended to fight Russia in a continental war (and nobody else really) then it seems to me they should have it. Or perhaps a lot should be given to the Balts, Poles, Romanians and Finns, if the US no longer needs it.

I also suggest that the US Army and National Guard should be reduced by at least half, as you no longer want to fight expeditionary wars.

As for US education - that’s been my hobbyhorse for years. But the Republican party and the conservative populace has never taken it seriously, until now. I was a voice in the wilderness.
