Sundance (the pseudonym of the main author) over at The Conservative Treehouse, points out that the Trump administration is fighting a single-front war. His assertion is that both Democrats and Republicans represent an establishment Uniparty (of which the Deep State is a part) and Trump's team represents the outsider that the people have been pining for since, gosh, who KNOWS how long? I'm only 37 and I haven't invested the time to investigate. How long HAVE Americans been pining for an Outsider Candidate to break up the establishment?
Legislators spend the majority of their time fundraising. Can we all agree on that?
Corporations donate money to legislators in order for those legislators to be more amenable to their agendas. Scalia said this was a feature, not a bug. Can we all agree on that?
Lobbyists write the majority of legislation that legislators put forward. Can we all agree on that?
Lobbyists write legislation that benefits the deep pockets of the corporations that employ them. Can we all agree on that?
Corporations have agendas that may not be aligned with the best interest of America in general. Can we all agree on that?
So if Trump's "America First" agenda, which includes:
- America First trade renegotiation
- Enforcement of immigration laws for the benefit of American citizens
- Improved border security for the benefit of American citizens
- Spectacular diplomatic consensus building in both Asia and the Middle East
Can it be any wonder if those representing the interests of globalist corporations (Establishment Dems, Republicans, career bureaucrats, and conglomerate media owners) fight tooth and nail against him?
I didn't vote for Trump but I'm reconsidering that stance in 2020.
