You Need Help
*
When I talk with you, it feels like you haven’t fully grasped what has just happened — and what is happening…
It’s very similar to a family crisis in which an unstable member has repeatedly let everyone down, causing lots of damage and heartbreak — and finally, most of the family has had enough and felt compelled to cut them off because they no longer trust them.
In many ways, the US is like this bipolar person (with some megalomania and paranoid schizophrenia to top it off) — a lovely person in their good periods, but whose bad ones just seem to get worse and worse. And now, your loyal wife — who’s a strong, independent woman — has left you.
For many years, you’ve taken your northern neighbor for granted. You haven’t realized how attractive she is and that she has many charming suitors around the world…
…And no, Russia — the old wife-beater down the road, who just lost their entire family due to serious domestic violence issues — isn’t going to be your friend. Not a real one. If you had a little more awareness about the situation in our neighborhood, you would know what they’re saying about you behind your back.
Anyway, the situation has gone on for far too long, and the rest of the family has kind of given up on you…
