The war is not meant to be won, it is meant to be continuous.

ENJOYING TRUMP’S GOLDEN AGE YET?
So your REAL pay is essentially flat for the last five and a half years, using fake government inflation figures. Add at least 2% (probably 4%) to the annual number to get the REAL inflation number and you are taking home at least 10% LESS than you were in 2020. But don’t you worry. Donald Trump Jr. was worth $10 million on daddy’s inauguration day and is now worth over $500 million. He must have worked a lot harder than the rest of us. And all of our $10 million stock portfolios have done stupendously well.
When you go to the grocery store this week and pay $200 for a cart of food that cost $150 last year and then pay $4.29 a gallon for gas that you paid $2.89 a gallon for in February, remember who to thank. Trump’s golden age is golden for him, his family and his billionaire friends.

We must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes.
-President Dwight Eisenhower, Farewell Address, 1961
