It is a long read, but worth it.
Trump is NOT the answer. It’s over for him. He failed to clean out when he had the chance, as the author points out. The author reminds us that Americans need to associate to take back local power in their states, but not stop with elections. In addition, new groups of Americans need to recapture the local institutions, including schools, from the oligarchs.
It’s not over for Trump. I doubt he will run again but he will choose those who do.
That said, I don't know if it is over for Trump. He was clearly in over his head in that he had no idea just how profoundly great was the power of the Ruling Elite in our country.
The professor is correct in that Trump suffered from what Teddy R called the most self-destructive of habits (unbridled tongue with unready hand), but Trump was not a politician...and his learning curve was exponentially steep.
Now I'm not saying Trump will make a return, but he is a fighter. And he now knows where a lot of the bodies are buried and has a very clear knowledge of the enemy (the Oligarchy or Ruling Elite).
And Trump has a following and knows how to inspire them.
