But here is the problem, in my opinion. It is still going along to get along. It is still playing ball. It is still everything we hate about establishment politicians and what they do. Indeed, Donald Trump has been establishment for most of his life. I am not convinced that it is the price of doing business. It may be the price of being a billionaire instead of a millionaire. But not every business owner or entrepreneur or maybe even CEO does this. You can operate under the radar and just not make yourself a target and be successful and come out fine in many cases. But you know Washington DC itself is of course owned. It is owned Best put why the globalists. I happene to believe Donald Trump has done business with these people. But even aside from that these people have owned pretty much every president no matter what that person’s intentions and beliefs were. The fact that Donald Trump, if elected, is worth billions doesn’t really matter at that point. The fact that he can negotiate does matter but it is a whole different world to go from asking how much to cut the check for and negotiating buildings to foreign and domestic policy.I won’t say he can’t do it. I am merely saying that the attitudes, agendas, and stakes are different. But this whole notion of Trump can’t be bought or owned because he is a billionaire, I don’t buy it. He is as human as the rest of us, and Trump happens to be, IMO, a human who at times has shown severely flawed judgment.

I hear you but disagree.

In Wash DC you simply can’t play both sides of the aisle if you are in business, big business.

I said “business,” not politics, and even in politics there are times compromise is done. Too often the GOPe capitulates, whereas I am reasonably confident Trump will fight unless he see’s value in compromise, in other words, in my view, he will fight and force the democRATS to move rightward and then Trump will choose when to compromise (act politically), as opposed to the GOPe running constantly leftward and calling it compromise.

The establishment on both sides do not like Trump and seethe with anger at the support he is getting. That is very telling, is it not?

IMHO, of course.
