If you consider that the Trump Republican Party controls everything, you have to wonder why their constituents' continue to be victims. I suppose it is, because the people that need to believe that Trump would help them have to be victimized so that Trump can remain their savior and hero. The question is this; what has he done for them? Honestly, the answer is simple; absolutely nothing!
It is safe to say that Trump and the Republican Party are the "Great Illusionists". In almost every way that they satisfy their base is a grand illusion. Hillary Clinton for example; didn't need to be a horrible person, but they were able to create the illusion that she was. Almost every one of their accomplishments have been built on illusion. Take the tax cuts as another example; the illusion was that it would help the working class. It hasn't. Trump's campaign promise to give everyone better health care for less. Yes, another illusion. His border wall (it won't get built), an illusion. His business skills, an illusion. The fact that he is on T.V. at this very moment acting like he cares about the hurricane victims, an illusion. It is about his image (that he cares). He doesn't care about anyone other than himself. Perhaps the biggest illusion is the Russia Investigation "Witch Hunt". It is not a "witch hunt". The "witch hunt" is just another illusion. Everything he does, since he actually accomplishes little or nothing, is backed by an illusion. Thing is: his supporters believe all the illusions. He is their savior and hero, not based on what he accomplishes, but based upon what he says. They believe him and that is all that matters to him and the Republicans. If you want to see more illusions, just watch Fox News. They appear all the time disguised as journalism.
Donald Trump would very much like to make the freedom that we enjoy in America another one of his illusions. He will try. As an authoritarian, he would like to provide us with only the amount of freedom that is acceptable to him while giving us the illusion that we should be grateful for that. Hopefully, along the way you can sort out fact from illusion in time to vote for Democrats in the mid-term elections.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE VOTE!!!
