Long essay, but food for thought.

I always doubt those who say they can see the future. But, it is interesting to see what others say is a trend.
He speaks more about Brexit and Europe than the US.

If he didn't predict that Trump would be the 2016 GOP nominee, then he doesn't no any more than I do.

i read it , it just sounds like it is his prediction on the future and he might be correct . He doesn't like BREXIT , i would have voted to leave if i was an Englishman. If i get the gist of the article all the guy is saying is that people like me need to start thinking like he thinks to avoid catastrophe . His words on Trump might be correct or incorrect . The only alternative is 'hilary' and i won't do that as long as the Trump is available and running .

This is basicly an antiTrump hit piece. But, Trump is not who caused the problem. Not one critical word about Hillary who was a major factor in making it a lot worse.
