Early 70s marked the clear turn _toward_ the cliff. Up until 2016, the question was whether they would turn away. Then, with the election of Trump, they drove off the cliff, aimed for the bottom, and lit the afterburners with a mighty yee-haw. ---

“One of the rescue workers, heroes, from Florida, not a lot of people know that, came up to me and said ‘Mr. Trump, sir, if the election hadn’t been stolen from you, you’d have made sure that building stayed up.’ He knows that all my buildings stay up. I’m the only builder who can do that. As President, which I still am, by the way, the Champagne Towers in Surfboard would be even taller now.” ---
