I'm glad that America is doing real classic end of empire stuff. A king who is visibly losing his mind declaring a war based on a dream he had. Greedy courtiers feuding over access to the treasury. Some looks are timeless.

RFK2 sounds like he's wearing an Edgar suit. Obscure MiB reference that def shows my age, but I cant NOT think of it every time I hear him.

Revision: RFK2 is an alien possessing the original RFK2 model, obsessed with MAHA because he really just wants all the sugar water to himself.

So tied up in the ideals of the neo-Christian death cult, just like our current government. Full steam ahead to destruction! 🚂💨 Toot toot! Rapture, aka silicon consciousness, awaits!
