New year. New month. New day. New calendar.
The question, of course, is what will this new year bring? Will it bring success or great joy or prosperity? Or will it bring us failure and sadness and struggle?
No one knows what this year will bring. The pundits may offer their predictions, but who really knows?
I think the only thing for certain is that this will be a year of chaos, divisiveness, greed and all the other things the incoming president has promised. And frankly, these are not things to which I am looking forward.
Mass deportations? Rollback of environmental protections? Tax cuts for the super wealthy? More struggles for the middle and lower classes? Endless insults? Tariffs? I think all of these things are a given.
I am enjoying watching the various magat factions attacking each other. I can only hope they all self-destruct.
Once again the sane among us will be forced to watch our once-great nation become the laughing stock of the world, thanks solely to the orange skinned buffoon and his sycophants.
This year could be particularly bad with the supreme Court, the White House and both houses of Congress controlled by the same ultraconservative, radical right-wing zealots.
There really is no way to prepare for what the next 4 years will bring. All we can do is watch with great trepidation and fear for our country.
