It's mpossible to believe his goal is to return power to the people. I hope everyone understands that. Doesn't mean he can't do good things for our nation, but We the People will be left even more powerless at the end of his term.
LOL. Thank God I'm not quite that jaded. Getting close though!
So that is his base.
Patriotism is effectively outlawed. That's what's been accomplished in the time we've spent here.
I think he made a mistake taking ownership of the stock market. He should have stayed true to his messaging and called for normalization of interest rates and the unwinding of the Fed's balance sheet. Instead he's serving the banksters and corporations and fucking over his entire base. I would hope it's temporary for reasons you stated, but we have no basis for believing it is.
