The fact that Kissinger outlived Bourdain proves there is no God.

Though I almost wish Kissinger had lived long enough to see Trump piss away the American power and influence Kissinger sold his soul for. Kissinger should have lay on his deathbed knowing his successors squandered every advantage he won for America, that he steeped his hands in blood and made himself the greatest war criminal in history for nothing.

For people like that I can’t even imagine that they don’t do it for the love of the game. Things always go better for everyone when we work together(should still tell nazis to sit on a stick and rotate, though), people in positions of power like that are cruel for cruelty’s sake. All he did was create more enemies for his country and chased more hate like the lady who swallowed a fly. It never got better because all he did was inject poison into the world and didn’t use any of the US’s influence or power to actually help anyone.

Just a huge piece of shit all around.
