Trump's circle of evil

It's hard to write here sometimes as it is hard to find amusement in the world at the moment.  Donald Trump's regime appears more odious, venal and vile than one could have anticipated... Siding with a murderous tyrant against Ukraine, spreading lies and coming up with such whoppers as no peace was ever achieved without both sides making concessions.  This from the country that nuked Japan into unconditional surrender?  I seem to recall Hitler committing suicide? 

And poor old King Harold got an arrow in the eye whilst Richard III was buried under a car park?

J D Vance meanwhile is pomposity personified.  The US President continues on his mission to dismantle domestic institutions and populate them with political puppets.  Meanwhile Elon prances about like a pantomime villain.  A while ago he advertised for people to send him their code (not their CVs) on Twitter.  I sent him some old AWK scripts for a laugh and didn't even receive an auto response*.  I guessed he was building a LLM but then it occurred to me that perhaps that's where he got his DOGE Musketeers from...  With the bodies piled high in Gaza also we are entering an era of global instability of the like I cannot remember. WWWIII? I saw an ex head of MI6 on the news the other day who said that the misunderstanding Trump has with Putin is he thinks the Ukraine war is about territory whereas really it is about the fact that Putin disagrees with Ukraine's right to exist altogether.  Of course he does.  Any non authoritarian regime is a threat to a nearby authoritarian one.  Just as Canada, Mexico & Greenland are threats to Trump.  Trump is such a vile person.  Unlikable on every level... 

*For those of you who are not programers the joke is that awk consisted almost entirely of special characters? 

#!/bin/sh

pattern="$1"

shift

awk '/'"$pattern"'/ { print FILENAME ":" $0 }' "$@"

No?
