I can acknowledge that she's probably an awful person and deserves to be destitute while simultaneously feeling sympathy for her and not wanting her to make any rash decisions and make her situation worse.
Things are pretty bleak. Not in a "haha trump is gonna look so dumb" kind of way, but a supply chain interruption, famine, rioting and civil unrest kind of way.
There's lots of people to blame but that doesn't make me feel any better.
