Shortly after his victory in the 2016 election, I wrote an article However imperfectly, and despite my continuing criticism of much Now the New York Times has said as much in a recent article that appears This dynamic has been a long time coming with Trump exploiting the As Doug Casey and others assert, the gross disparity between the 1% The failure of either mainstream faction to address this key grievance Hillary can keep yapping her sore-loser mouth blaming Bernie, the Had he chosen different cabinet members and done a better job By aping the triangulation approach of Bill Clinton in his recent At this stage, it looks like the NY Times is correct in seeing him as Our nation is faced with deep divisions and serious problems now Can this Independent garner the strength of character and wisdom That is the question that will be answered in the months ahead. Like
\nclaiming that Donald Trump had essentially established my vision
\nof a new political party, independent of the two-party tyranny.

\nof his foreign policy, Trump has indeed gone far in maintaining his
\nwrecking-ball ways that did so much damage to both the Republican
\nestablishment when he dispatched the Bush Dynasty as well as to the
\nClinton\/Obama Team that has dominated the Democrats.<\/p>\n
\nto confirm my theory:

\npervasive disgust and wide-spread mistrust of the political establishment.<\/p>\n
\nand the rest has led to the death of the middle class that constitutes the
\nfoundation of American society. http:\/\/revolutionradio.org\/2017\/09\/09\/doug-casey-parasites-feeding-off-the-middle-class-as-collapse-is-coming\/<\/a><\/p>\n
\nled to the Tea Party Right and Occupy Left Movements in recent years.
\nThat failure created the space for Ross Perot, Ron Paul, Bernie Sanders,
\nPat Buchanan, Ralph Nader and ultimately Donald Trump, the showman
\nextraordinaire, who knew exactly what to do and say in order to win.<\/p>\n
\nSexist-in-Chief, the Russians and everyone else but her lame self.
\nThe truth is Trump ran an excellent campaign despite his many
\nweaknesses while she was damaged goods representing the
\ndiscredited status quo.<\/p>\n
\nof adhering to his campaign promises, his early presidency would
\nhave been far less dramatic.<\/p>\n
\nbudget deal with the Democrats, Trump has shown his flexibility
\nand survival instincts. But his unpredictability is both a strength
\nand weakness that insures the coming years of his Administration
\nwill remain a roller coaster ride. http:\/\/stonecoldtruth.com\/its-a-roller-coaster-ride\/<\/a><\/p>\n
\na political Independent in the ways I suggested months ago. But
\nthe question remains as to whether he will be able to build on his
\nown legacy and sustain the momentum of transforming the country
\nin the direction his candidacy reflected.<\/p>\n
\nmagnified by violent storms, social unrest and talk of a new war with
\nNorth Korea.<\/p>\n
\nneeded to deal with these multiple crises or will his alleged dilettante
\nstatus prevail to destroy both his presidency and the new populist
\nmovement attached to his persona?<\/p>\n
\nI said, hold onto your hat: it’s a roller coaster ride!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-83521","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83521","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=83521"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83521\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=83521"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=83521"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=83521"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
