Some people need a bad guy, especially the media. In the movie Scarface, Al Pacino delivers a drunken monologue to a group of wealthy folks in an expensive restaurant worth noting:
What you lookin' at? You're all a bunch of f***in' assholes. You know why? You don't have the guts to be what you wanna be? You need people like me. You need people like me so you can point your f***in' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie. Me, I don't have that problem. Me, I always tell the truth. Even when I lie.
Has the thought occurred to you that maybe Donald Trump is not the "bad guy" the media and others have made him out to be? Could it be possible they have a reason to attack Trump? In the Dark Knight Batman movie the villain Joker says the following line to the super hero:
Those mob fools want you dead so they can get back to the way things were. But I know the truth: there's no going back. You've changed things. Forever.
Washington, Wall Street, academia, big business, the media, Hollywood, and politicians compose a vast network of insiders unwelcoming to any that would attempt to disrupt their comfortable establishment. Why is Donald Trump so reviled amongst the members of these clubs? He was once a member, he's seen what has been going on, and he decided to do something about it and disrupt the ebb and flow of aristocratic malfeasance.
Let's go back to 2016 for a second. Trump gave a talk at the Alfred E. Smith Dinner, which is really just an elitist get together that also raises money for Catholic charities supporting children. I'll attach the full speech below, but it's an integral video to see Trump air the dirty laundry and hypocrisy of the cabal. So they hate him for disrupting their setup. For example, the speeches are supposed to be humorous at this event - Donald Trump abided by that principle, but added some flair with a few zingers towards the very end:
Trump: I was not really sure if Hillary was going to be here tonight, because, I guess, you did not send her an invitation by email, or maybe you did and she just found out about it through the wonder of WikiLeaks. We have learned so much from WikiLeaks. For example, Hillary Clinton believes it is vital to deceive the people by having one public policy—
Audience: BOO
Trump: And a different policy in private. That's okay. I don't know who they are angry at. Here she is tonight in public, pretending not to hate Catholics.
He goes on with more powerful statements, but note that he "always tells the truth, even when he's lying." In politics it should be noted that if you garner boo's from the establishment, then you are likely onto something.
Many of the members of the institutionalized cabal have become so entrenched with the rampant degeneracy that they have lost their way. Take Mike Bloomberg for example. As Al Pacino said above, he doesn't have the guts to be what he wants to be despite the means to do so, because the club comes first and he cannot fall out of favor. He may be a billionaire of world class achievement, but he's wanted more than anything to be President. However, as he's since learned it takes skill and not money to ascend to the highest office in the land, and it's especially difficult when you hogtie yourself to the party line.
Take a look at the Bush family, we had the father and the son serve as President, and then the brother campaign to try and complete the trifecta. How is it that we can be such a sophisticated society filled with so many successful individuals, yet the same old groups essentially hold a chokehold on the bureaucracy? The points above should help compound the reasons behind the distaste for Trump amongst the people who have deemed themselves the ruling class.
The issues in the Republican Party are essentially two fold - branding and being losers, but we need to understand why that is and how the two points are connected. Democrats have successfully put Republicans on perpetual defense by labeling them as a group of racist, bigoted, xenophobic advocates - it's really quite sad. The party also had some lame characters in recent decades like Pat Buchanan who said gays were not welcome in the party, but he's not unique to the Republican Party because figures such as Obama and Biden were not believers in gay marriage being acceptable until it became political expedient. Republicans however do not mind being improperly labeled insofar as they still get a seat at the table. Look at someone like Paul Ryan who enters office with not much of a net worth to his name, but leaves lining his pockets. He didn't mind the media and the cabal harping on him because he understood as long as he was submissive he would always have a seat at the table and his mouth would be fed.
So Republicans are perennial losers in bed with the Democrats who accuse them of the most vile things, but life goes on and both happily feast and break bread together - while they all laugh at us, the "regular people." Then enters Donald Trump, who fights like a gladiator in an attempt to enact policies beneficial to the nation as a whole. The cabal cannot have an outsider, so they attack him in the most vicious ways, but it's too late as the Joker articulated, "Those mob fools want you dead so they can get back to the way things were. But I know the truth: there's no going back. You've changed things. Forever." If Donald Trump has done one thing, its expose the rampant corruption, but the establishment order is hoping they can ride Trump off the scene unbeknownst to the fact that it is too late, there's no going back to the way things were.
Another issue I would like to raise - Democrat and Republican voters do not disagree on much in the grand scheme, but the establishment cabal wants us to think we should hate each others guts. Many of the young people within the twenty-thirty age bracket are led astray by constant messages about how evil Republicans are, which comes back to the issue of branding and Republicans not fighting back because they don't want to go against the grain and disrupt the club. If more people were in tune with the reality of the issues they would reject media narratives, but it's hard to uncover the truth when all those in power are trying to hide it.
Ultimately, we all want a great country that welcomes people of all denominations to create a prosperous life, we just have a different means of arriving at such a destination. We can work together, for example we must try and break up the establishment via some kind of accountability legislation. We need term limits and no more insider trading or gerrymandering. People should not go to Washington to eat, but rather to work. It's time we disrupt the club to the point that we dismantle it.
We need to realize when the cabal says, "That's the bad guy!" The opposite is more than likely true.
