Nihilism might have something to do with suicide and drugs.
General DeGaul of France once said something I have always remembered. “The French only feel good if they are doing something great.” I think its the same with American. We have no purpose. We need new goals, new drive—like the winning of the west, the end of slavery, saving the world for democracy, Stopping Nazi Germany and ending Godless Communism. Americans hate wars—but we love a crusade! Trump needs to rally this inner American need. What new goals? I could give you a list: 1. Free Cuba! 2. New canals to bring water to the west. 3. Rebuild the Merchant Marine in US. 4. Finish the Crazy Horse Monument. 5. Build new transcontinetal Rail Roads. 6 Rebuild Washington DC as a city of Monuments. 7. Go to Mars! 8. Build a starship! 9. A new mount Rushmore to feature JFK, Reagan Truman and Trump. 10.We need a Tall Ship for the Navy Midshipmen (Uss United States?) and 11. a Presidential Yaucht for Trump.etc...
