Trump...how's this work now?

I think people either deliberately or accidently forget WHY Donald Trump got elected. 
People were fed up with the Political Class & the Bureaucracy. Those two animals are the real threat to the West & in this case a threat to the USA.
In fact those two groups that work for the most part very closely together are what Trump & others called the SWAMP, that needed to be drained.

Those that were fed up with Political Elites were the ones Hillary from the Political Class labeled the "Deplorables" - Having said that, its looking more and more likely that there were Political Class/Bureaucratic Elite sympathisers in both major parties 

Trump was everything the USA needed.
Trump wasn't from the Bureaucracy 
Trump wasn't from the Political Class
Trump was a definite disruptor.

He wasn't doing it for the money, he has plenty & he donated his salary to charities...in effect he worked as President for free and may have even used his own plane until Security said he couldn't.
He did Move the US Embassy to Jeruselum as his 5 predecessors promised to.
He did raise the Hispanic & African American employment rates to unprecedented levels
He oversaw Middle Peace advances, there are now direct flights from Israel to UAE
He even visited North Korea, first leader from the West.

Yes in many ways he was portrayed as a clunky cartoon character of a President but he was able to cut through "the swamp", the do nothing behemoth made up of the Political Class & The Bureacratic Elite. Sadly it remains very likely that many of these advances wouldn't have happened without a complete outsider coming in and putting the foot down on non performers.
He was the perfect outsider, who came in to change things. Some not so good, but much good was profited for everyday citizens.

Odd he might be impeached for inciting criminals fools invading the Capital building with only days left of his tenure. 
For the record, all those who stormed the building, fought and injured law enforcement need to be identified and prosecuted to the fullest extent the law can allow.

Where to now? Well unity should follow but I think it's pretty hard to expect that will happen anytime soon. There is a definite presence of extremists in both the Democrats & Republicans. There is a definite pathway of dissent and confrontation coming. Hopefully it isn't violent.

With Democrats holding the Presidency and power in the Congress they will move forward whatever they want to a point. Now its clear many know "Never let a good crisis go to waste" so they may continue to demonise the conservatives whilst raising taxes and in the case of the Green New Deal real darker foundations. What's dark?
Salaries for those who cannot and "do not want to work".
Including illegal aliens. Kid you not.
Free healthcare for all, including illegal aliens.
All illegal aliens be given a visa.

So if they stick with that, you can get into the US illegally, then stay legally, get free healthcare & a living wage without working.

Then there's other chance these things will be wound back and the Biden term won't be quite so bad. 
They did though make anti NRA noises & Biden says he plans to take firearms away. That's quite a flashpoint.

Now some commentators are saying 2 sitting elected members need to go on a no fly list for terrorists.
Its going nuts & a culture of division & hate is being given steroids.

My guess, China will rise, America will suffer and prepare for a drop in the American Dollar in the next 12 months.

It's a sad & divisive time and it could get worse.
