The Wave of ....

And so, Trump has won. Boomers had their revenge on the Millennials, rural areas against the urban dwellers, and women defeated women.

I don't know what will happen, but if the trends I outlined in my previous post start coming true, we're all in for a long a dark night.

I do expect increasing social instability, first by the protesting disaffected masses that voted against everything that Trump stands for, then by the far-right backlash, then, as his promises will remain unfulfilled and policies drive the economy into a recession, by his own angry supporters.

Time to brace. Time to survive, and keep the flame of the American republic from being snuffed out.
