the mechanism through which i believe lasting damage is being done is by incompetence: long term diplomatic maneuvers are difficult to convince others to work with if there remains a serious possibility the US leadership will be pants on head fools in four years.

AAAAUGH! The lithops is doing a thing! I was not informed that lithops did things! I thought they just sat there and occasionally sprouted pups like a normal succulent!
