It's demoralizing, but that's how the bastards intend to win, or at least part of the calculus. Trump can;t pass legislation, the biggest skunks in the downfall of the country are in Congress, with Courts being a close second. Presidents get cabined by career government, but for the most part are in cahoots with the plan to reduce national sovereignty slowly over time.
Trump is one man, but he is by far not alone. Just outnumbered in the government environment. Taking the country back is the job of the people. Don't drop your cold anger. Mine gets stronger by the day. The Gandhi/Galt method is proven to work.
