better for who?

I think everyone is underestimating the changes that are happening. Obviously if Trump wanted a prosperous USA, he wouldn't be isolating it, and destroying the federal government and wrecking scientific research and diplomacy across the world.

but an overall poorer US with a permanent far right government under the control of a small group of rich lunatics is better for those rich lunatics.

I don't really care what he wants, but apparently tens of millions of Americans want isolationism. We have tried to make it clear that this will be an economic disaster, but they won the election and they get to make the decisions. So rich lunatics it is.

Really sorry for Ukraine, though. We knew back in November that this meant certain death for them.
