Yes but there's also such a thing as getting tired of gloom & doom, concern and worry, looking for how this could be bad, negative negative negative. So some people could understandably downvote for negativity. We, like any fighting force, need morale boosting positivity, IMHO, rather than seeking more things to worry about. Yes all facts are welcome not only positive ones...but attaching negative energy and emotion to them accomplishes nothing. (Not stating anyone in this thread did that, speaking generally)

By the way, I'm not "worried" at all. Fuck that. Worry is just wasted mental energy. If you're worried, you're paying attention to the wrong people and what they say, and inducing stress on yourself.

Consider:

  1. If you worry and the bad thing never happens (which is 95% of the time), then you wasted all that time and energy worrying for nothing.

  2. If you worry and the bad thing happens anyway (despite your best worrying efforts), then you wasted all that time and energy worrying for nothing.

  3. Trump himself said, and I quote, "Don't worry." :)
