My genuine concern is that it’s basically lights out for humanity as far as climate change is concerned. This is the critical window and we’re gonna miss it.
In the grand scheme, yeah, I agree. However, I think with complete idiots like ttump, Mike flynn, RFK jr, etc. making decisions that antagonize Europe and bolster Russia, Putin will accelerate his narcissistic and psychopathic dream of reconstituting the USSR. Putin doesn't look like a well man - he'll be on an expedited imperial schedule.

I think the climate crisis is baked, but the overwhelming impacts will still take a number of years. I think Putin goes Thanos in a far shorter timeframe.

Insurance rates go up for all. More major hurricanes. More droughts affecting crop grow. Rising sea level In 25 years Miami and Charleston will be partly underwater. We need a "Man on the Moon" project for fusion energy technology scaling to power plants. Back to coal with be ugh.


This final tallies and disposition will require 1-2 days with the Blue Wall and possibly Iowa.
 
Ford, Carter, Reagan, 41, Clinton certainly weren't autocrats. Obama wasn't. W let Cheney run the show and Trump is Trump.
I didn’t say any POTUS was an autocrat.

RIF. READING IS FUNDAMENTAL.

We, the USA, had no problem in the post-WWII era putting autocrats into power. Iran. Vietnam. Chile. Central America. Etc.
 
If you genuinely expect the market to collapse, just move to cash. There is no tax implication in a retirement account.
I increased my cash position to >30%, today. It was an optimistic hedge. If I thought this would unfold I'd have gone >50%.
 
The last four years? Man, I’m really finding out with my retirement account posting back to back best years ever and my income going up significantly. Juxtaposed against Trump killing a million Americans with his incompetence/gross negligence.
Trump cost our family an aggregate of $30,000 more in taxes. Truckers lost 1/3 of their itemized business/rig cost deductions. His excessive QE in 2019, coupled with the 2017 tax bill and the massive deficit and debt increase, plus tariffs wet the stage for inflation.

We had a wealth transfer from working and middle class to the Donor Class. The Billionaire Bros. want to keep it that way.
