My point is that Trump's bullshit is well-known by now and no one really prepared for a second term. Added symbolism is that both Merkel and Abe aren't politically active anymore and Europe/Democratic Asia still hasn't united.
Wars in East Europe, Levante, South Asia, Southeast Asia and no one has a plan, because the self-declared leader of the world plays obstinate child.
I don't think Abe is active in any way anymore
Actively decomposing, unless he was cremated.

TIL. So yeah, what remains of Abe is not very active at all, as far as what's observable to the unaided eye. I'm sure there's some trace amounts of radioactivity in the ashes and some molecular movement due to the fact he's not stored at absolute zero.
Levante? Also what war is in South East Asia?

Yes but the other world leaders didn't elect him. The propaganda-pithed morans of the US did.
How is that related?
