The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists advanced the symbolic Doomsday Clock a notch closer to the end of humanity Thursday, moving it ahead by 30 seconds after what the organization called a “grim assessment” of the state of geopolitical affairs.

“As of today,” Bulletin president Rachel Bronson told reporters, “it is two minutes to midnight.”

In moving the clock 30 seconds closer to the hour of the apocalypse, the group cited “the failure of President Trump and other world leaders to deal with looming threats of nuclear war and climate change.”

This is really bad. We need to stop wasting time and get Trump out of there!

1. If only it were just Trump...

He's just one symptom of the disease of greed, self interest and irresponsibility that is prevalent in the world right now. It's going to take a lot more than just getting Trump out of office.
