    The best thing about Trump he is destroying people's belief in government

    Democrats talking segregation and Calexit, Republicans learning that even Trump is a fraud... this last year has been great for shattering the illusion that government will ever work for We The People.

    Sure, and to vent their outrage, We the People shall vote Democrat - for an outsider, too. Someone who feels them up the ways they feel themselves; the face of a real rebul... but familiar enough to trust:

    The worst thing about Trump is he is ending people's hope of stopping political cronyism and corruption because people think he was corrupted after he got elected and not that he always was a scammer.

    The only thing this is doing is making voters rethink the idea of ever giving an anti establishment politicians/non politicians power to anything. By the time he is out of office, the average American voter would have a new found appreciation for people like Obama and Bush.

    No, because there is always someone from the outside better than Donald Trump.

    But they would be more reluctant to give that person a chance. The devil you know is always preferred over the devil you don't know. Trump has turned out to be a spectacular failure in changing anything in Washington. He is Obama and Bush but he just doing the same thing in a very irritating way.

    He was never either of those things. Trump's been one of the most political establishmentarians in the past 20, if not 30 years. He bet on his audience, and that is all.

    Kid Rock is pretty popular and there are a lot of celebrities considering running in 2020 and beyond. I think Wesley Snipes would be a great candidate because of his issues with the IRS.

    I don't know how it could be any more obvious. This is still the person who invited the Clintons to his wedding. This is still the guy who bragged about buying congressmen during his campaign--and was believed because everyone already knew it.

    Trump as Outsider was a false narrative set up and reinforced by the major 24/7 news sources. It is Fake News.

    Like all Urban Legends and other disinformation, the b.s. of Outsider Trump will fail the test of time. Only the most moronic if Fake News Consuming Chowderheads believe it today.

    I could see that from the beginning from my bunker, Trump was no Jesus. Nostradamus move over. Debbie Downer is in the house.

    In politics, perception is reality. If people perceive that Donald Trump is an outsider than outsiders will run for office and the right one among them will be elected.

    In politics reality is what people feel is real. People believe stuff just because they want to believe it.

    A wise man once said much the same thing.

    'The average man does not get pleasure out of an idea because he thinks it is true; he thinks it is true because he gets pleasure out of it.'--H. L. Mencken
    The Fake News media understands this phenomenon well. Maybe by the time he's ninety, dannno will get an inkling too.

    The funny thing about all of this is, every cycle people spend all this time dissecting how the Deep State won the last election. And every cycle, they spend this time dreaming up a whole new way to win the next election.

    The only thing which can tip this thing our direction is inoculating people against the temptation to vote against their best interests in order to go along with the herd. But considering the lengths people went to to condemn Rand Paul for trivialities and forgive Donald Trump for felonies, I don't suppose there's any hope for us.

    Yeah, but once 2020 comes it will be "The Most Important Election of Our Lifetime" again and they won't care about DACA, the Wall or anything else because the "other side" will be so much worse.

    Hard to believe they'll find something more evil than the Wicked Witch of the West for us to vote against. But have faith. They are resourceful.

    The best thing about Trump is Hitlery being in prison.

    Seriously though, there was that whole "Two For One" regulation deal. I was a fan of that.

    And... Well, I like that he gets those Nancy-assed SJWs so shook. It's fun watching them cry and flail their fragile wrists around in hysterics.

    This is hard. The guy's a bum

    Why is learning the truth a bad thing?

    They can realize there isn't enough difference between the two evils to worry about, and tell all their neighbors--with a smile--that they've found a non-evil to vote for.

    The MSM is Exposed. The "Deep State" (Military Industrial Complex, CIA, Wall Street, Hollywood, Globalist Syndicate) is Exposed. The American Empire has been Exposed and is currently being rejected by every country not named Israel & Saudi Arabia. The 2nd Amendment is Protected. We can still grow gardens, raise chickens, and brew our own whiskey. Sounds like winning to me.

    This is what I have been trying to point out since the Calexit started. People wanted a wrench thrown into the system and that's pretty much what they got. Trump is proving to be quite effective at destroying people's belief in government and/or the system, whether or not this is intentional. Democrats, Repubs, Libertarians, and just about everyone else hates the face of our government for a number of different reasons right now, some having to do with Trump, others having to do with all of the entities trying to bring him down and their tactics. As long as he remains stubborn, difficult, unpredictable, and not completely controllable, this should continue.

    Operations by the Fed are more gridlocked than usual and flowing like molasses as they frantically bicker over Trump and how to defeat him, rather than debating the degree to which liberties should be destroyed. The intelligence apparatus is now exposed for the sham they are and the deep state is now visible. On top of that he has destroyed the integrity of the mainstream media to such an extent it does not feel like they will recover. This is what makes him, perhaps, the best face of government we have had in a long time, because it's creating doubts in the minds of most American citizens, something that is long overdue.

    EM.

    It is possible but quite improbable IMO.

    Not entirely to his credit but it won't be easy now to duplicate/surpass massive blunders of Bush/his handlers (like dumb Iraqi freedom invasion) and of Obama/his political slave masters (ike dumb creation of ISIS terrorist group and instigation of civil wars bloodbaths throughout mideast). More likely he would end up being a great one-liner speecher/twitterer/middle-grounder in policy who manages to avoid and to some extent reverse massive blunders of Bush/Obama & masters co just by being himself, by wearing his thoughts on his sleeves, by keeping very few secrets etc. Sure there could be more future episodes like where he talks about letting military generals escalate war in Afghanistan and the next day talks bout firing the top general in Afganistan but that is path probably to gridlock and even slow improvement in the current mess but not to focuseed, costly blunders of the scale we have seen when US regime was fully in control of neocons' owners.

    I think we both know that the average American can't think outside of the box enough to do most of these things on your list.

    Can you blame them? It's football season baby! Of course, pain has a unique way of curing ignorance. When the dollar fails so will the bread and circuses. More pain = More people looking for new solutions to there suffering. If the average American can't think outside the box, right now, then plant seeds and start now! Start with your friends, family, local community and work your way out. All long term solutions to our problems must come from the local people themselves. If the people don't know better, teach them.
