A brief essay about tomorrow’s two guy Alaska get together

1st – here’s some history: Russia lost a war in Crimea in the 1850s, leaving the country deep in debt. To ease that burden, Russia cut a real estate deal with the U.S. government, selling its colony of Alaska to the Americans.

Now, President Trump and Russian leader Vladimir Putin will hold a summit Friday in Alaska to discuss another difficult and costly Russian war involving Crimea, one of the territories Russia has captured in its fight with Ukraine. (Source: npr.org)

A fundamental Q… question – why does history keep repeatin’ itself – huh?

I obviously πŸ™„ don’t know what’s going to happen… do you?  I also obviously πŸ™„ think πŸ€” I know one thing for sure… the growing split between America’s πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ two political parties is not exactly πŸ‘ something that isn’t being watched, analyzed and perhaps πŸ€” even enjoyed πŸ€” in πŸ™„ Russia πŸ‡·πŸ‡Ί as well as China πŸ‡¨πŸ‡³ and the Middle East!

What πŸ€” if anything will change or get resolved tomorrow… or next week?   I’m not talking about Ukraine πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦… I’m talking about here at home… I mean America πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Another Q… is the Democraparty embedded in a 19th/20th century political, philosophical 🧐 and economic system that’s rapidly changing and evolving?  Do they want the old fashioned bureaucracy… political slow moving upside down πŸ™ƒ judicial system meanderings and west coast ai πŸ€– robots πŸ€– and silicon alley creatures who pretend they know exactly what path to take as their pocketbooks pile up ⬆️with dollars πŸ’Έ worth nickels – huh?

Is DC/NYC low IQ media loving πŸ₯° dat’ rare breed of rich πŸ€‘ billionaires who claim all forms πŸ“‹ of intelligence?   Do they have even a clue about what’s really happening in the attics and basements of our foreign and domestic enemies?  I don’t!  Do you?

I’d just as soon fix the DC/NYC mess here at home 🏠!  If we even can.  We’re on the path of massive uncertainty… and yet we pretend otherwise… hmmnn πŸ€”.

That’s all folks…
