Week 31 Likely To Be Worse Than Any Week Until Now: Afghanistan, North Korea, Phoenix Rally And Arpaio Pardon

We are now in Week 31 of the Trump Presidency, and it could be that it will end up as worse than any week until now, but hopefully not!

We are likely to hear Donald Trump tell us tonight that we are sending more troops to Afghanistan, where nearly 2,400 troops have died in the nearly 16 years of this disastrous war, our longest war in American history.

We are seeing military exercises by South Korea and the United States this week, which could provoke Kim Jong Un of North Korea to start a new Korean war, causing massive loss of life in South Korea, and among American troops.

And Trump is scheduled to have a political rally in Phoenix, Arizona, Tuesday night, further provoking people after the Charlottesville tragedy, and probably announcing a pardon for former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, even before he is formally sentenced for his outrageous mistreatment of immigrant prisoners in his jails.

This is likely to draw more nativists, racists, and neo Nazi types to Arizona, and violence could ensue.

Let us hope this scary forecast does not occur, but it does not look like a good week for the fourth week of August 2017!
