** 22-May-2019 World View: Britain's Theresa May on her last days as Brexit disaster continues
Andrea Leadsom, who is Theresa May's second in command as leader of
Britain's House of Commons, resigned from May's cabinet an hour ago.
Her complaint: She objects to the crass weakness shown by May in
making concessions to Labor in order to get a compromise Brexit deal.
Making the concessions was a waste of time anyway, since Labor leader
Jeremy Corbyn said that they weren't enough concessions, so he
rejected them as well.
The continuing Brexit disaster is a perfect example of what happens
when Gen-Xers are in charge of running things.
In the 1990s, the world was being run by World War II survivors,
mostly Silents. Those leaders knew how to negotiate and compromise.
Today, the world is being run by Generation-Xers, backed up by
millennial crazies like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (OAC), who do not
have the vaguest clue how to negotiate and compromise, and consider
knowledge and experience to be worthless baggage, rather than
something of value.
So we see this spectacle of Britain's House of Commons with everybody
shouting at everyone, with no compromise in sight, or even a
willingness to compromise.
The same kind of spectacle is occurring in Washington, where the
Democrats completely humiliated themselves by demanding a two-year
Russia collusion investigation that produced a report that didn't meet
their demands, so they're pursuing dozens more investigations to try
to get the conclusion they do want.
We've been reading for decades that SAT scores have been falling, and
there are news stories now that many students are graduating from
college without even basic skills. OAC, who is one of the stupidest
people around, is the poster child for one of these college graduates.
This, ladies and gentlemen, is what happens when Gen-Xers and
Millennials are in charge. Many of them are good people, but most of
them appear to be complete idiots. No wonder the world is headed for
a world war.
As for Brexit, my expectation continues to be that Britain will leave
the EU with no deal, because that's the only option that doesn't
require anyone to agree with or compromise with anyone else.
Theresa May might resign today or this week, or she may wait until
week after next, given that Donald Trump will be visiting London next
week to commemorate WW II. Whoever replaces Theresa May will face
exactly the same problems -- Gen-Xers and Millennials who are
too dumb to know how to negotiate or compromise.
