I can't help but think how this election will look tame in comparison to what is to come. AI and Automation will continue to savage employment. Environment will continue to degrade. Millions of more in America and around the world will feel like they have been left behind.

Where do we go from here?

Indeed, and with regards to the environment, it's particularly worrying that Trump intends to reverse all the progress made so far in the US on addressing climate change.

(Though to be honest, that's one of my lesser worries concerning a Trump presidency. Along with increasing discrimination and divisiveness within the US, it's likely his proposed foreign policy changes will enable Putin to annex further regions of Eastern Europe.)

Lets hope that it was all talk and he still believes in encouraging Freedom and Democracy around the world.

It is terrifying to consider the message he would send to Putin and other Dictators if he carried through on his foreign policy changes.
