Donald Trump

He is touching a sentiment. I do not believe his enthusiasm and the content of the message will become old for Americans.

I consider that good news. Perhaps others don't remember the USA under Bill Clinton. We were attacked under Clinton, but, it resulted in trials and prison and not war.

There is another America that was abandoned in 2001 when there was a change in administration. We had a more peaceful America. We were the greatest country of all time. 2001 changed that and I am not talking simply about the attacks of September of that year. 

Fashion took on a really estranging focus. There was an introduction to 'Christiana' during those years. It was the beginning of the religious emphasis and a turn from the public domain. There was an intolerance that developed after 2001. An intolerance to anything in the USA that did not have the stamp of 'god' in some form or another. There was a rise in orthodoxy. 

The country got strange. About 47 or 48 percent of the USA population was estranged from being mainstream. The cronyism was incredible and the Republicans ran rough shod over ethnics and decency when it came to protecting the USA from elaborate deception. Our pets were under attack from pet food. The fracking took on a national agenda when Cheney's energy committee attempted to destroy the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act.  

Everyone was wealthy or on their way to become wealthy. Owning two houses was nothing. Three was better. One for the city, one for the country and one for rental when not enjoyed at the shore by the family. The country lost it's middle class tone.

The USA does want to reclaim itself. Donald Trump is not far from the heart of this country as it was before we were demoralized and redefined. I do believe he loves the USA and remembers when the USA was engaged in happiness rather than ultimate productivity that left people a label called the working poor.

Donald Trump said the other day, "Let's have the election today." He means that. He is somewhat bored by the routine of politics. He is going to burn himself out if he doesn't take a few days off soon. He really wants this. To some extent he minds me of me. When Earth was headed into an impossible warming trend I decided I'd sit at a computer and carry the message myself. I was right, wasn't I? I remember the statement by one of the news agencies saying the issue of climate change has developed far more quickly than most issues do. I consider that a compliment. 

So, when it comes to 'getting things done' most Americans understand that. They are disappointed in their government for what is almost 16 years. The USA started 2001 with a treasury surplus and now look at us. The people want their country back and nothing short of that will be acceptable. 

He is a character. But, he is definitely looking for a return of the USA as it was, not as a vision to more disappointment. Life in the USA has become bizarre and unjust. Since when does the USA stagnate and lose it's credit rating? Since when is shutting down the government even conceivable? 

Donald Trump didn't find an opportunity when he decided to run for president, he found his own disappointment in the political party. Now. Tell me he is alone. There is absolutely no one else in the USA disappointed in the Republican Party. I would not lay real money on that bet.
