Historic, biggest debt in entire US history. Trump might see himself as more Presidential than all US Presidents in history except Abe Lincoln, but in this regard no one can match his record in expanding big gov debt spending at lightening fast speed... not even Lincoln.

The ONLY way I would ever give kudos to trump is if the entire Fed crashes down and people are forced to rely on themselves, family and local community, and get it through their numbed thick skulls that liberty is the only way.

But with tptb, such as Gates, Soros, the military/medical industrial complex...

It is not about a president, or the congress/senate. It is about a moral people, feeling and understanding liberty from within, and that is not about to change anytime soon. Just look at history.
