Vietnam didn’t have a massive effect on global trade that affects every economy on earth. The longer it goes on, the more major players will want to bring it to a swifter conclusion. It won’t be a multi decade slog between a handful of countries, but a Great War that drags dozens of nations into it. It’s a mini World War, not a forever war like Afghanistan. It’ll only turn into another Vietnam if America tries to nation build, and I think America giving up and going home with Iran in shambles is far more likely.

Up to the low 90s? Is this a joke, or is there something I’m missing?

The real danger is fire. Slightly elevated heat and high winds are a recipe for disaster.
