#Trump makes the #US empire much more transparent and unhidden. He removes its mask and reveals the twisted face beneath it.
He says the quiet parts out loud. He’s the only president who’ll openly boast that US troops are in #Syria to keep the #oil or lament that they failed to take the oil from #Venezuela , or just come right out and tell everyone he’s bought and owned by #Zionist #oligarchs. He puts much less effort into disguising the true nature of the US empire than other presidents.
That’s the only reason various factions of America’s unofficial permanent government have had objections to Trump’s presidency over the years. It’s not because he presents a threat to the establishment or because he’s trying to bring down the deep state, it’s because he is viewed as a poor custodian of the empire. He either doesn’t understand or doesn’t care about the importance of keeping a polite face on the imperial machine.
If I were forced to say something positive about Trump, that would be it. The thing some US #empire managers dislike about him is the only thing I like about him: that he makes the US empire a less effective evil because of how much less hidden he keeps the inner workings of the machine. The hood stays popped open the entire time, showing the whole world how the imperial sausage gets made.
