Donald Trump: polls of approval and favorability

I have often said that a fourth turning marks the end of an order and way of looking at things.  My suspicion is that when future history books are written they will say that the election of Trump marked the real end of the Progressive Era.  It looks like the next saeculum will be marked by the destruction of large entities including nation states.

Be careful what you wish for.  As just one example, it's nation states that have nuclear weapons stockpiles, and outside actors that want them for their own purposes.  Unless some alternative arises that can assure survival of the human race, your vision of libertarianism, really anarchy to be brutally honest, will make the Black Plague look benign in comparison.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
