It’s really hard to win the game when you don’t even know what game you’re playing.
The “people” are taught (or at least, used to be) the organization of government...this is how a bill becomes law, etc., and that is how government works.
It is not. There is and always has been, a hidden game with rules that are not public, and for years we’ve been playing (and being played) the wrong game.
I think that is why Trump is so feared. He knows the game and he knows the hidden rules. He is playing and winning that game and he is on our side (or we’re on his side, which is much the same thing).
I am an optimistic cynic.
Trump has a serious problem, there’s an election up ahead and he has a skewered report card so far. Here’s the downside.
