Trump IS the only one who can lead America out of this cesspool of corruption. He has been President and knows all the intel. He knows that the 2020 election was rigged, and he knows how and by whom. It will soon come out in court.

Trump knows all the corrupt agencies that are part of the administrative state/deep state that must be dismantled.

He will take care of business on day one, have no doubt.

Trump is a conman. Government is a con. Support of elections betwixt one right wing and the other rightwing is choosing which hand you want to hold the club to beat your head in. All governments control, manipulate, cheat, enlarge a bureaucracy empowered to control. Dissolve the Federal state. Dissolve political parties. The Republic is decaying, dehumanizing, and deciding mass murder is the best solution. The Holy State has a President Pontiff who proclaims dogma and the mass minds argue over which inhuman doctrine is superior. Communism or Fascism.

Does it matter when both are totalitarian? Which TOTALITARIAN IDEOLOGY is better to stomp on your face? When the boot comes down on you it does not matter at all. Cannot Americans understand that political Parties serve the overall Technological system? Whether with nature or technology, humans succumb to a sacral awe of the powers which govern their destiny and rob them of their freedom and capacity for critical reflection. This awe turns them into slaves sacrificing and serving their new idols. A society of techniques undermines human freedom by requiring that we always choose the most rationally efficient techniques for every endeavor. No business or society can afford to choose a less efficient solution for fear of being rendered obsolete by their competitors. Even as once political ritual, in ancient Rome and elsewhere, mediated the divine favors granted by nature’s deities, so today, says Ellul, politics serves the technical myth of utopia by providing the collection of rituals that create the illusion of control over the favors granted by technique. And yet we discover that contemporary political rituals involve holding hearings from technical experts who can advise politicians on the most efficient techniques which can be used to solve our problems. Technical necessity continues to reign while utopian fantasy, Ellul argues, “is a consolation in the face of slavery, and an escape from something one is unable to prevent. . . . Whenever men have taken utopian descriptions seriously, the result has been disastrous” (“Search for an Image,” in Images of the Future, ed., Robert Bundy (Buffalo N.Y: Prometheus Books, 1976)  pp. 24-25.”

In such a society, no protest against the efficiency of technique is possible or even desired because we are enthralled with the utopian world of wonders we believe technique can give us. Moreover, all discontent is treated with psychological and sociological therapeutic and mass media techniques that will help us become well adjusted, fully entertained and happy with our slavery. Utopian hopes integrate the individual into the necessities of a technological society. Their promise: accept the demands of efficiency and your fondest hopes for wealth, pleasure and abundance will be fulfilled, offering a heaven on earth.

I know that I don't want to be under Muslim Obama's Ideology. Then what is your solution?

Look at some of the leaders of our Country. They weren't the best. Look at the Fraud we have now. The Corrupt Biden Crime Family. Then include Left Wing, too. If you think Obama isn't

running the Country, then think again. Hater of America. Lover of Islam.

It is not feasible to my eyes to politically stop the steamroller. All political parties serve Mammon. Money is mother's milk of politics. Look at your government since at least the close of WW1. Expansionist, Imperialist, Militarist--but not for the common man. Our politicians are all, each and every one are Racketeers for Capitalism. Lie after honied lie. And daily the Republic watches the grotesquery of billions spent on militarism and SAYS NOTHING. Can't you see? No political solution is there. The death of freedom is now. Politics is an argument over who among the very powerful and very rich gets the spoils, not what will be best to help Americans. Do the Rothschilds, Rockefeller's, Soros's or Musk's or Gates of the world care about YOU? How about the folks they buy? The ones hired to stage manage the show? Do the actors care? No. The concept of human dignity is not new, but it is ever more urgently required by humankind.

No one in government gives a shit. Not even your folk hero Trump. Men are objects and voters are marks for conmen. No government makes you free. All governments bring more chains to bind. Freedom is saying NO

MAS. Boycott the SELECTION. Boycott the war taxes. Set your foreheads against the IGNORANT HIRELINGS.

Then why do the American People put up with the lies and drama?

I’m not entertained anymore. The Macys Parade is an example of the false excitement of Thanksgiving. I want to NOT participate. I think we should ALL stop participating in federal taxes when our federal government isn’t serving us. How to Stick it To the IRS.

The short answer is we are born with intelligence and as we grow older we conform more and more with our class or culture and refuse to think about why we have opinions shared in lock step without original reflection. We know dismantling the unborn is evil but legal. We buy into the current culture. War is a great crime but we pay the price to keep the militarism alive with 106 million unemployed and a decaying infrastructure. Why? My past is in fighting back against the insanity. As a child I wrote letters against Vietnam war. As an adult I was fighting against atomic weapons by supporting with I confess tremendous reluctance SANE/Freeze. I favored the idea of Erich Fromm. Disarm one bomb at a time and invite the other powers to do so. I fought Contra Aid. I opposed both Gulf Wars but after Gulf War 2 I decided that the nation was doomed and tyranny inevitable because Americans fail to think for themselves but go with the the flow like a dead fish. Americans in every social class refused to think about Covid lies that were more than obvious but locked down, masked up, and prayed for a vaccine to bring secular salvation. And here we are now after a putsch 3 years ago thinking we are free to vote with the context of incredible vote fraud, About which none in Congress care. I am not a pundit, nor prophet, nor politician. I am a political person favoring human freedom and human dignity and human rights. My writing is based off the philosophers I have read. My opinions belong to me and I share. The only difference between me and being homeless is that I have a studio apartment and very little income. I shout out fire 🔥 and the fact that the smoke and flames are obvious signs is ignored by people who think in groups. They say everything will be better when Trump returns and the Restoration of the rightful Pontiff President has been accomplished. Or they say JFK Jr. hypocrite extraordinaire is the new anointed leader and all must support him. BAH. The people want a kinder task master to steal from them but do not want to do the job themselves. Eh, we pretend to hire them to work for us. They work hard for Mammon not you and no partisan faction can do otherwise because Mammonry is acceptable. As accepted as harvesting body parts from the dead and in China from the living. Can a culture remaining ignorant be free? Jefferson said no.

Y'knoooow.....adopting an air of nihilistic cynicism and pessimism doesn't pass for intellect. Whining, while doing nothing, is child's play. Sorry you are demoralized, but not letting myself be similarly so by this defeatism.

Do nothing? Hardly. Voting for which hand beats you points to Stockholm Syndrome to me. Show me when in 100 years we have a government reflecting a earnest and real effort to break the oligarchs. Not Woodrow Wilson who got us into war. Not Mr. Hoover who was hands off. Not our petty dictator FDR. Not Truman and on and on. The illusion of good government is a delusion, an oxymoron, similar to thinking everything is okay if I trust the plan. One party is the Walrus and the other party the

Carpenter and the public the oyster. We the People must put 40 hours a week into self government ---our REAL WORK.

I don't think Trump can solve our problems. But I do think he CAN facilitate the solutions. But only if we want to get honest enough to recognize where things went wrong and how they did. The best way to initiate this would be to GET HONEST and willing to admit our horrible mistakes.

Let's start with COVID. Obviously the rush to produce miracle "warp speed" cures while empowering Big Pharma has been at the root of the collapse of the Medical/Industrial complex.

We have put FAR too much confidence in the filthy Banking industry, the Military, our institutions and a media system that degenerated into a propaganda controlling fascism.

How do we define "Great"? We need to abandon the MAGA slogan. How about Make America Honest Again? Or , Make America Healthy Again? Or Make America Humble again?

Finally, How about Make America Just Again? With Liberty and JUSTICE for all. (than means we have people in prison that need to be relieved and restored...and criminals that need to be justly PUNISHED!)

Trump never had the skill-set for law enforcement. He was a great Monte Hall salesman and promoter, but a poor law enforcement Chief Executive.

Perhaps he will see his failures and facilitate the changes we really need. if he comes back???

While I agree that the covid response was a total disaster, Fauci, Birx etc. gave the same bad advice to Biden from 2021 to 2023, so I don’t see how it can be seen as an intentional act to bring down Trump. I further don’t understand what exactly it is that you think Trump did well. Was it the tax cuts to the wealthy? Was the ballooning of the deficit more in his single term more than any prior President in 2 terms several times over? Was it his wasting of millions of dollars of tax payer money by playing golf practically daily on our nickel, on his own golf courses no less, and housing his bloated secret service detail at his own hotels so that he profited from same? Was it putting his know-nothing children in positions of importance, calling them “advisors” and giving them undeserved and dangerous security clearance? Was it his stacking of the courts with unqualified far right leaning judges who are dismantling the civil rights of minorities and women and taking us back into the dark ages? Was it by making us a laughing stock around the rest of the world for electing a man as President who acts like a juvenile imbecile with his non-stop school-yard name calling? I could go on and on, but I think I’ve made my point. Trump is just plain not a smart person. For the record, I’m not a fan of Joe Biden either so that is not where my criticisms come from. I do so wish we would intelligently and realistically acknowledge both men’s shortcomings so that we might work toward getting us a choice of better candidates on the ballot in 2024.

You omitted his looooooong record of successes, that you personally benefited from, including nearly nonexistent existent, energy independence, fighting for control of the southern border, Abraham Accords, cordial diplomacy with adversaries that culminated in relative peace, record low unemployment, record high employment of blacks, Hispanics, women, record high level of minority entrepreneurship, the bottom 50 percent of American households saw a 40 percent increase in net worth, enacted policies to bring back supply chains from overseas, cut the business tax to 21%...the list is long.

Dr Birx, in her book, aka political payoff, has publicly admitted that she and Fauci lied INTENTIONALLY to Trump about the efficacy of the vaccines, lockdowns, masks, social distancing, etc. Her words, not mine. Smugly admitting that she, Fauci, et al., had a political and ideological agenda. We all know what that was. Fauci has been absurdly all over the place, contradicting himself with the most infuriatingly smug deceit and hypocrisy. What Trump DID do was, correctly, not interfere with states' rights. It was not Trump who locked down...it was the states' governors who are to held accountable for this.

I'm not voting for Trump until he publicly admits that his Operation Warp Speed contributed to an ineffective and outright unsafe COVID vaccine.

In other words, you aren't voting for him, because were he to *admit* to those actions for which he was not actually responsible, you would then say that his *apology* was *proof* of wrongdoing, incompetence, erraticism, blah blah blah. You have only Birx, Fauci and comrades to blame for that, along with the individual states and cities who forced all the *covid mitigation* and vaccination under duress. Have the honesty to admit that Trump stressed the vaccines were intended for only the most vulnerable populations, not a broad brush application, and that he was savaged and slandered viciously for suggesting alternatives like HCQ, nutritional protocols, UV therapies, etc...all things we now know were effective.
