What's funny to me is how Trump, rough edges and all, is proving to more moral than his "christian critics". He's become the most pro-life president in US history. Meanwhile, many of these supposed conscientious moral giants continue to turn their backs on the unborn and the world.
Maybe God sent Trump to shame the self-righteous. They certainly should be ashamed. "Yeah, but he golfs!!!!!" Something tells me, they're still shameless.
People see what they want to see. Make America great again. What does this actually mean?
America has always been a diverse society with lots of things going on and not really that concerned with the rest of the world.
But come the world wars and the rise of militarism as a global policeman, things changed.
But maybe this is actually all propoganda. Like the idea that a president has real power, when in truth the senate and congress when they agree has real power. Sadly the english parliament is more able to change direction and write new laws than the american system, so you get these massive swings and change in society that are truly transforming, like going from an industrial country to a financial services country.
I live in London, and in reality London is its own multicultural bubble, quite different to the rest of the country. Whatever it meant to be english to my dad, it is something very different now. Brexit demonstrated the generation in the country who still live in the world of the 1960's are dislocated from the young generation of the internet and international identity. Brexit showed the economic realities of todays world have not dawned on the people, so they talk about a time when we were poor and almost bankcrupt like it is a good place to return to. This is just delusional. The worlds population has doubled since then and the issues today are not the issues of our youth.
This is why Trump is a temporary blip in the sea of global identity and realisation. We have global catastrophic change coming in the next 50 years, worst case scenario, and we have not yet woken up. If our culture cannot cope we will descend into extremism and war, and the more violent solutions of one group against another take hold.
When I think of Trump, I think of Zaphod Beeblebrux and the insanity of the show, while basic economic forces take hold.
God bless you
