Trump Is Derailing The Elite’s Gravy Train

Posted on 11/04/2019 8:22:00 AM PST by rktman

Like the garbage French elite of long ago, our American garbage elite of today has learned nothing and forgotten nothing. For four years, it has been focused entirely on deep sixing Donald Trump for his unforgivable crime of demanding that our ruling caste be held accountable for its legacy of failure. Instead of focusing on not being terrible at their job of running America’s institutions, our elitists have decided that the real problem is us Normals being angry about how they are terrible at their job of running America’s institutions. So, let’s imagine that they finally vanquish Trump, though every time they come up against him they end up dragging themselves home like Ned Beatty after a particularly tough canoe trip.

LOL! Yeah, must suck for them to face accountability for a change. And, how many star studded celeb filled soirees has PDJT held since he took control? No chance for the pols to rub, well whatever, with their favorite stars/celebs. Awwww. No booze filled drug laced fetes to attend. Awwwwwww! And getting one of those positions is still a ticket on one of the biggest gravy trains there is.

President Trump is showing how a man of the people should act and the elites can all eat cake.

They’ll try to kill him, even if only to make an example of him. A billionaire should have his own private, security chief to detect if the Secret Service has been compromised.

These are the people who think it’s just fine for them to put their coke-head children on boards of crooked companies in exchange for protection from the law.

Failure would be one thing.

Intentionally flooding the country with foreigners to steal the country from the citizens to subsume it to the UN is quite another.

The Dems have always been corrupt - Birthed under Jackson’s “spoils system,” when else could follow but Tammany Hall, Daley machine, Boston’s Michael Curley, etc.? The entire function of the party is to get into power any way possible, and then steal the public blind.

Many Republicans have learned from this, and spend most of their time and energy pleasing their donors, and then reading some red-meat sound bites written for them by staff, sound bites that they not only don’t really believe, but often don’t understand.

Trump is the Great Disruptor of this corrupt system.

Funny stuff, there. That's some funny, funny stuff.

I have a feeling that if they killed President Trump, it might backfire on them....bigly....I would be one of the ones marching on Washington.

The needs of the few are to oppress the many.

Our garbage elite talks a good game about its service and moral superiority, but if our betters were actually better than us, we would not be having this national conversation about how awful they are.

Trump's right about these people...

It’s not hard to imagine the CIA having EMP capability, just in case we “little people” get too uppity. If the “elites” start heading en masse to their “safe places” we know it’s coming.

And if it gets power again, it will act to solve what it sees as the most urgent problem facing America – the fact that we the people have the ability to reject the elite’s utter incompetence and surpassing greed and elect someone with a mandate to burn down the whole rotten edifice.

If the elitists get power again, they are never letting go of it, not without a fight. And now, doesn’t the elite’s obsessive fixation on shutting down conservative dissent, eliminating competing institutions (like religious entities), and disarming law-abiding Americans make a lot more sense?
