So what's happening now?

trump left Mar-a-Lago this morning and is not attending his New Years eve party. What major thing is going on now that we don't know about? Saw in today's paper that bombers were flying over Iran (Persian Gulf) as a show of force????

I don't know if it's just a coincidence, but Joe Exotic's legal team is heading for DC for a "high level meeting," Best reality TV scenario ever! !Splat!

We are coming up on the anniversary of the killing of Soleimani, and various unofficial and semiofficial hotheads have been promising unspecified action. I think that’s a likelier explanation than a Trumpian gotterdammerung.

I don't think so. trump has not missed his NYeve parties in over 10 years.

In today's paper:
The Pentagon has decided to send home the only Navy aircraft carrier operating in the Middle East, a move that will reduce American firepower in the region amid heightened tensions with Iran. .... one day after Air Force B-52 bombers flew nonstop from the US to the Persian Gulf in a show of force that military officials said was intended to caution Iran against carrying out attacks. ... Also, Thursday sailors found on a tanker a "suspicious object" they fear could be a mine....

Also, trump is trying to rally republicans to not certify the electoral college vote coming up ++

Well, if we see a military coup in the next week I’ll be willing to admit I’m wrong.
