If Trump's not in charge of his own government, that's his fault and his responsibility, alone. If everyone around him are the one's taking charge, it means he was just never cut out to be in charge. Advertisement was good, though. Better luck next time. Dunno if I am saying it right, but hasn't he shifted what's called the "Overton window" in US politics? As in changed what's considered politically acceptable to talk about? That should mean you could still get a future candidate with better leadership abilities who can actually deliver.

Trump is in charge, the difference is that there are two other branches that are keeping him in check in theory...not sure how that is working out right now yet... since the DNC is imploding into themselves.

The CIA/NSA types work very hard to be independent of the Executive.

They are near impossible to reign in.

Near, but not impossible. I still think Trump is doing a good job based off of what I have seen drained so far.

He's cleaned out the FBI and DOJ of their senior leadership. However, I'm not confident the replacements coming out the Senior Executive Service are much better. Here's the little Catch-22 they've set up against us. The available candidates Congress will confirm come out the SES. It's a polluted pool. It's the same with voting typically. They want to give you a Bush or Clinton for instance.

Just to wash your dick off, if nothing else.
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.

Yup, the problem is that we need to make sure that people aren't too distracted by the "fluff" the media peddles because right now they are attempting to place the blame squarely on Trump, when it has been shown he has been recorded saying that he is willing to open the government back up if the Democrats are willing to give him the wall... and at 8 Billion or so, and what it would do overall, we know where the real blame is...

Politics is a dirty game, and regretfully the Democrats know how to play it better than the majority of Republicans, what Democrats don't know how to do is Business, and they are being schooled by Trump right now... the only reason they aren't loosing worse is because the media doesn't like seeing their political backers and foundation getting destroyed by a single person.

Eventually, people will come for what you have.

This is no joke.

There could be a lot of people, even people you know. They will have watched what you have, or what they think you have, and sure as heck they have had time to plan, and decide. Among them, it is very likely that you could have met them in a nearby town, and even had some light chat. I know that some farms have been attacked after some intel has been collected.
