One man, even if he's President, was never going to fix such a broken system.
I'm not happy with how Trump is handling several important issues, but I've disagreed with him plenty in the past so that's nothing new.
Agree with your overall point though that this admin is another reminder that voting only goes so far. Trump is still a million times better than the alternative, but anyone who thought he could actually clean out the deep state was always delusional about it.
That's not even what I'm asking. Trump and his team of outsiders seem to be running active cover for the enemies of America.
This isn't a utopianist, "he's not fixing everything" complaint. This is about that, no matter who you elect, they're going to be serving the war party, Israel, and the swamp/deep state.
Yup. I'm not saying throw Trump out. Grading on a (very sad and pathetic) curve, he's still a standout. But this highlights some very big problems in the system, is my point.
Yup, like I said, I agree, Trump is better. And I didn't expect him to clean out the deep state...but I wish he wasn't serving them so blatantly. Same for his people, who I had some hope for too. Tulsi has been hugely disappointing with her Iran flipflop, as an example.
At this point we have to accept that once elected, some men in black types visit everyone to lay down the law and explain the consequences of rocking the boat, at least hard enough to cause the passengers to get their feet wet.
Which creates the perverse incentive that, the only way you're allowed to change things, is capsizing the whole motherfucker.
It really is a nasty trap. They won't let us have a peaceful solution, even though peace is obviously preferable. They're greedy, evil bastards, who won't even allow a real pressure release.
All they had to do was let Trump be a good president, and not force him to blatantly serve anti-American interests. People would have largely gone back to sleep.
The puppet masters can't get out of their own way.
