I've seen this heading for a while now but haven't read any of the posts. I agree the Democrats are a disaster but so are the Republicans. I would argue that the US is falling apart because of their foreign policies to maintain uni polar dominance. They have done this for decades now by standing over any that do not fall into line, while their own citizens struggle to stay above the poverty line and their country's infrastructure is in rapid decline.

The problem for the US is that much of the world has caught up and are saying "no more". There are strong alliances being built that are working together for their mutual prosperity. Why wouldn't a country that has been used up in the past, usually by colonialist powers, go for such an arrangement?

It is a great shame for the people of the US and the world that the US has chosen this path because they could be a massive force for good in the world.

Australia should think carefully before fully committing to following the Americans down this road. The US perpetual war machine, driven by the relative few is not sustainable and is certain to end badly.

And Australia are making the huge mistake of following the US model. AUKUS is all about what the US need to maintain their hegemony and very little about Australia building a national defense.
