It's alright, while this crisis is unfolding, Trump is yet again staying at his golf course and tweeting about the UFC.

That is actually the best possible scenario.

Yeah, unfortunately Trump woke up and ordered an extra 4000 troops to Iraq.

"I am that worst of all type of criminal...I cannot bring myself to do what you tell me, because you told me."

There's over 100 of us in this meat-suit. You'd think it runs like a ship, but it's more like a hundred and ten angry ghosts having an old-school QuakeWorld tournament, three people desperately trying to make sure the gamers don't go hungry or soil themselves, and the Facilities manager weeping in the corner as the garbage piles high.

This is fine.

QuoteU.S. troops fired tear gas on Wednesday as hundreds of Iran-backed militiamen and other protesters gathered outside the American Embassy in Baghdad for a second day and set fire to the roof of a reception area inside the compound.

Dozens of Iran-allied militiamen and their supporters had camped out at the gates of the embassy overnight, a day after they broke into the compound, trashing a reception area, smashing windows and spraying graffiti before pulling back.

The U.S. Marines guarding the embassy fired tear gas Wednesday as more crowds arrived and after the protesters lit a fire on the roof of the reception area. Smoke rose from the building. There have been no reports of any injuries since the protests began.

Later, Iraqi soldiers, federal police and elite counterterrorism forces deployed along the fence between the protesters and the compound. There was no friction between the security forces and the demonstrators.

1. The Democrats' Very Smart Plan to impeach (and then fail to convict) Trump in order to replicate the impeachment of Bill Clinton and subsequent rise of the GOP 20 years ago will backfire because they forget that it isn't actually 20 years ago anymore.

2. Instead of inspiring voters to oust the GOP, the Democrats will nominate Biden and completely eliminate all doubt that they are the party of "everything will be fine if you just bury your head a little deeper in your ass, we promise". Trump will win reelection in a landslide, and both houses of Congress will gain Republican supermajorities.

3. The first 10+ victim mass shooting to go unreported on national news media because nobody cares will happen by October.

4. Amazon buys Netflix

5. Your 2 remaining childhood heroes die

6. French government collapses all the way, EU sends in shock troops to protect vineyards
