Everything is based on your inner conviction that Trump and his team are taking on the elite on behalf of ordinary people but you have yet to provide any evidence for this.
I go by what he said during the process of the Presidential election campaign. This more-or-less reflects my perception of what Trump is about.
Who is Donald Trump? Why the US Globalist Elites Dread President-Elect Donald Trump(I think you could regard this as ‘evidence’ …………) Trump’s appeal is tapping into this deepening divide between citizens and their oppressively dishonest and secretive government.
Working class white males are his prototypical supporter, angry over feeling pushed around and disenfranchised by a government that doesn’t give a shit about them. The Trump campaign promise to make America great again and calling the political system broken due to selling out to special interests resonates with a growing number of Americans who believe Obama and Clinton have sold America out to foreign interests and the ruling elite.Big business and big government are ruining the nation, and Trump’s volatile thunder is outcompeting the usual fluff and distraction fare that normally consumes the apathetic apolitical public. Even the latest antics of the Kardashian family, recent modern gladiator-big sports events and mesmerizing appeal of the latest electronic gadgetry the elite constantly serves up to preoccupy, hypnotize and
otherwise deceive the dumbed down masses from paying attention to disturbing, elite orchestrated world events and machinations are no longer working as they always have in the past.Meanwhile, instead of investing in the well-being of their own people living in Western nations,
the elite has wilfully destroyed the middle class, shrinking it to no longer be the majority population in America and refusing to maintain US infrastructure of highways and bridges as they literally crumble apart. Once the wealthiest city in the nation with its auto making empire, Detroit is another prime example of crumbling metropolitan infrastructure left to decay in apocalyptic ruin. With last year’s headlines Detroit’s water as a universal right denied its citizens for months at a time and this year nearby Flint’s foul brown water forsaking human health of poor Americans, these disgraceful tragedies are the story of modern America.
The globalists have wilfully chosen to destroy America’s once vibrant, robust manufacturing sector that supported the world’s largest thriving middle class.http://www.globalresearch.ca/ruling-elite-grows-desperate-to-destroy-trumps-presidential-bid/5515542
...... and I like the way he cuts through the diplomatic, politically correct world of those that want to bring him down before he upsets the apple cart.
But here’s Donald’s response to General Hayden’s swipe:
“ I’ll tell you how good our military is doing under Michael Hayden and people such as this. We’ve been fighting wars in the Middle East for 15 years, 18 years……… for four or five trillion dollars, we don’t know what we’re doing, we don’t know who we’re fighting, we’re arming people that we want on our side, we don’t know who they are. When they take over a country they’re worse than people they depose. Give me a break! “
In fact, many wealthy Americans engage in acts of philanthropy and I am unaware of any such acts in the past by Trump or others in his team.
Trump it appears is not known as a philanthropist or a supporter of charities ......... but then, neither am I, although I have given quite generously to others in the past .......... are you a philanthropist, do you give to others, do you support charities, do you do voluntary work ?
