Both are correct IMO. He is not acting alone. There are very very wealthy and powerful people feeding his ego and elevating his own distorted self worth. Thus he thinks he is coming up with things on his own. These people are intentionally taking over our system, with him at the helm. He is too ignorant to know that they are making the decisions, not him. He just relishes the power he thinks he has to (he thinks) do all this destruction. But make no mistake, he knows what the outcome will be of his actions..
I think he is doing this all on purpose as well. I was listening to Rush discussing the market crashing today and how the White House staff were laughing about the trader (traitor?) Rick Santelli’s comments on CNBC. I thought to myself, “This is being done on purpose to destroy the ‘Little Eichmanns’ on Wall Street!” Remember that idiot university professor’s comments about the people who died in the Twin Towers? They are being purposely set up to go down in flames - either they will be overrun and co-opted (like GM and the banks that are coming to him hat-in-hand), or they will be ruined. At least that is the Zero’s intention.
