One must ask though, what does Trump have to gain by doing this? He has power, he has money, he has fame. All the things that the establishment can promise most people are meaningless to Trump because he already has it.


He owes them. Literally. Nobody attains such wealth and power without external "help".

I know this will be unpopular, but Trump is not one of "us" -- No billionaire is. He's one of them.

quote:

This is why I dont think its nefarious on his part.


I bought that narrative as well for a short time -- which also included all the constant persecutions, prosecutions and obstruction to his Presidency. Made him appear to be very independent and "taking big ones for the team". Was it all real? Or scripted?

quote:

I do believe he thinks that hes making things better but once again, hes surrounded by snakes feeding him bullshite. Hes still trying to play the DC game the way its always been played. I think he also is afraid to overstep that line


That is the narrative and "reality" with which we are presented. If there are that many "snakes" in DC obstructing policy and law, is it possible a "coup" has already taken place?

Moreover, IF it's true that a US President is actually "afraid to overstep" any line, what are we actually inferring? That there might be a Shadow Ruling Cabal who trump (no pun intended) Presidential authority?

DJT has done many things I like, he’s done a few things I don’t, and I do get irritated that many of his appointments have been put on the shelf to collect dust by the Dems while the always feckless passive-aggressive establishment D.C. Pubs just sit there (like they do best).

Its the most perfect explanation of the Trump personality cult Ive ever read.

Prior to that point, most posters here agreed with me on virtually every topic.

The core group 100% is. Their entire existence is to defend the name of trump. Not all Trump voters are cultist.


The hard-core DJT can do no wrong types were a direct, extreme opposite reaction to those like yourself who take the baseline approach that there is nothing the man can do that’s right.

Predictably, extremists will always prompt the rise of an opposite extreme.

Neither extreme can be accused of using their God-given brains. They mainly react to the opposite extreme.

This doesnt pass any logic test. Why would Trump, who definitely is a notorious narcissist, agree to do this?


Yes, he is an absolute narcissist. But ultimately even he has bosses. The pyramid rules. Their orders and his debt to his brotherhood supersede any personal opinion. (My theory anyway. But hey, I'm just a CT kook )

You have it backwards.

Conservatives like myself are a reaction to your Orange trojan horse trying to hijack the conservative movement for progressive economics and globalism.

“My” Orange Trojan horse. I have been a DJT supporter but have often been critical of him. My post history is out there.

Your childlike reaction though making sure you get an “Orange” dig in there to boot helps to actually underscore my point.

You’re an extremist who doesn’t think, you just react.

I can subscribe to people behind the scenes with lots of power. I can subscribe to theories...if they pass simple logic. Trump would have never given up his life he had before to just follow orders. Your theory is illogical

I thought Rise of the Panicans was a box office flop. I guess some escaped into the wild

And nothing other than just defacto destroying trillions of dollars will ever change it. We have been on a course for currency failure for years and years. Your main concern is the country staying relatively stable for just long enough for you to live our your life...then we get to deal with the falllout of being just a massive South Africa where savage brown people rule over a dwindling white population
