There is an international group called BRICS.
While your dear leader destroys NATO, BRICS is rising. The US does not own our planet.
The BRICS leaders are laughing in Donvicts face,
That is all.

(15,818 posts)"BRICS is a geopolitical and economic alliance of 11 countries, including the founding members Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, along with recent additions such as Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Ethiopia, the UAE, Indonesia, and Iran. Its primary purpose is to create a multipolar world order, challenge Western dominance in global institutions like the IMF and World Bank, strengthen economic and political cooperation, and promote sustainable development and social inclusion. The group seeks to increase the influence of the Global South in international affairs and reduce the dominance of the U.S. dollar in global trade through initiatives like de-dollarization and local currency transactions."

(8,904 posts)That is going to be news to plenty of rich people, not to mention the current regime.
There are times that I feel that we think we are responsible for the planet continuing to rotate.
And, that is such a delusional position.
But, being delusional seems to be the American way these days.
