As the election results continued unfolding, Democrats and DSA candidates took control of the House and the Senate.  With the outcome still being tabulated, around midnight President Trump gave a lengthy interview to Brett Baeir and Fox News.

In the aggregate the MAGA movement, like the Tea Party that preceded it, was neither Democrat nor Republican.  A person only needed to look at the issue(s) of borders, immigration, illegal aliens, H1B’s etc., to notice the outcome was the same with the D or R.  The same was true for American jobs and the insufferable march to a ‘service driven economy.’  The movement that supports Donald Trump was never Democrat or Republican; it was/is a coalition of historically unrepresented voters, essentially a third party.

Trump’s supporters represent a third party in a two-party system.  This was always problematic. Professional Democrats, leftists writ large, hate Donald Trump. The Professionally Republican also dislike him immensely.

The 3rd party coalition lost fulcrum stability on the issue of War and Peace (Israel, Iran).  Democrats and Republicans then pounced on every subset of special interest within the coalition to emphasize friction and division. The dividers blamed Israel and the Iran conflict for every negative outcome in everything, some valid – most not.  That was enough to maintain the instability while dividers drumbeat the issue of (put _ your _ topic _ here).

“It ought to be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things. Because the innovator has for enemies all those who have done well under the old conditions, and lukewarm defenders in those who may do well under the new.”

― Niccolò Machiavelli, The Prince

From my view; from my very personal view; from the perspective of a root cause; when you peel all the skin away from the onion and evaluate the problem from the central core, the underlying point where the atom splits, the problem is Susie Wiles.

Bad advice and counsel as a matter of elevated, aloof incompetence; or is it purposeful, controlling intent?

Given the fact that we can track the ‘disconnect‘ to the transition period and earlier, and overlaying the Vanity Fair nonsense that was ego-driven and right in the middle, I lean toward the latter.

Regardless of incompetence or intent, there’s a pattern of bad advice and counsel.

Donald Trump’s loyalty and grace is both a virtue and a vice.
