Most of us have heard or seen the saying:
Strong men make good times
Good times make weak men
Weak men make bad times
Bad times make strong men
These authors theorize we move between cycles every 20-30 years. I think that it is going something like this;
Good times: 1950-1975
Weak men: 1975- early 2000s
Bad times: early 2000s - early 2020s
Strong men: early 2020s - ~2040
Humans tend not to learn from others mistakes or from history. I believe it was Reagan who said that we are always one generation away from losing our freedoms. While this is an unfortunate fact, hopefully when the Q stuff goes down, it is so biblical that it lasts beyond 2040. We have to break the cycle of taking prosperity for granted.
This country is the greatest that has ever existed, and we deserve more.
We are better and stronger than these subversive commies.

I looked into the authors take on trump being the grey champ, look what they had to say.
"“Soon after the catalyst, a national election will produce a sweeping political realignment, as one faction or coalition capitalizes on a new public demand for decisive action. Republicans, Democrats, or perhaps a new party will decisively win the long partisan tug of war. This new regime will enthrone itself for the duration of the Crisis. Regardless of its ideology, that new leadership will assert public authority and demand private sacrifice. Where leaders had once been inclined to alleviate societal pressures, they will now aggravate them to command the nation’s attention. The regeneracy will be solidly under way.”"
