Love him or hate him, during Trump’s presidency, the economy was strong, markets were up, inflation was under control, gas prices were low, illegal border crossings were down, crime was lower, trade deals were renegotiated, ISIS was defeated, NATO allies were stepping up, and China was stepping back (a little). Deny all that if you want to. The point here is that something like 100 million Americans believe it, strongly, and are bewildered and angered by elite hatred for the man they think delivered it.
Nor was Trump’s record all that radical—much less so than that of Joe Biden, who is using school-lunch funding to push gender ideology on poor kids, to cite but one example. Trump’s core agenda—border protection, trade balance, foreign restraint—was quite moderate, both intrinsically and in comparison to past Republican and Democratic precedent. And that’s before we even get to the fact that Trump neglected much of his own agenda in favor of the old Chamber of Commerce, fusionist, Reaganite, Conservatism, Inc., agenda. Corporate tax cuts, deregulation, and bombing Syria: These are all things Trump’s base doesn’t want, but the oligarchs desperately do, which Trump gave them. And still they try to destroy him.
Again, why? I think it’s because, while Trump’s core MAGA agenda is decidedly not outside the historic bipartisan mainstream, it is well outside the present regime’s core interests. Our rulers’ wealth and power rise with open borders, trade giveaways, and endless war. Trump, at least in principle, and often in practice, threatens all three.

They forgot to say one after another Middle East peace deals were being signed.
The deep state hates President Trump destroying their human traffic, drug, banking and other criminal enterprises.
I guess “they” have control over who we elect to public office.
An important article - thanks for posting.
“They” will never let anyone NOT in “the club” in that spot again. EVER! Even if it means 150 million ‘votes’ to stop it. 😵💫🤡🐎💩 No mean tweets means everything. They can bully, others can not.
Trump’s base is not for corporate taxes or against deregulation.
This guy is screwed up.
It’s no coincidence that 10% Big Guy Joe replaced Free and Fair Trade Donald.
Ping
He made them all look like the useless scumbags they are.
It’s all about the threat Trump poses to the 30 year bipartisan plan to turn the USA into North Mexico.
