What kind of person is this, to have such a nasty scheme going in Central and South America, while at the same time warring, blockading, embargoing, and bombing countries all over the globe?
No wonder he looks like a dish rag in photos taken in China...issuing orders and overseeing all of the hurt he is inflicting has to suck a lot of mental and physical energy out of him.
This is the betrayal at scale, and it is bipartisan to the bone. Read the succession of slaughter as the book lays it out: the manufactured Maine explosion that gave McKinley his war with Spain; the Gulf of Tonkin incident Johnson conjured to widen Vietnam; the Domino Theory the Dulles brothers sold to a credulous Congress to license interventions that had nothing to do with any communist threat and everything to do with corporate money; Eisenhower persuaded that a “bloodless” coup beat an honest war; Allende; the death squads of Guatemala and El Salvador the United States trained and armed; the assassination of Archbishop Óscar Romero; the Contras funded, when funds ran short, by the drug trade Rubicon personally watched move on military transport. Every administration is implicated. The Congress abdicates, decade after decade, and the abdication is the point: the architecture works only because the people’s representatives agreed to stop exercising the people’s power, and the people agreed not to notice.
The US never fails to harm other countries

Time to be removed, and retired out to pasture.
