Worst August job numbers since 2009. America CEOs is openly saying that Brand USA is tanking across the globe now. All of them bent the knee to Trump and supported his anti woke and anti worker agenda. Empires destroy themselves from within.

How Every Empire Falls The bells ring out on Sunday morning Like echoes from another time All our innocence and yearning And sense of wonder left behind Oh, gentle hearts remember What was that story? Is it lost? For when religion loses vision That's how every empire falls

Padlock the door and board the windows Put the people in the street "It's just my job," he says "I'm sorry." And draws a check, goes home to eat But at night he tells his woman "I know I hide behind the laws." She says, "You're only taking orders." That's how every empire falls

None of this is surprising. Trump has pretty much alienated America's allies the world over. Slapped illegal and unjust tariffs on every country in the world and then says take it or leave it. Guess people are leaving it. He has made the "American" brand more toxic than a nuclear waste dump.
