Trump: Puppet or patriot? (and why it might not matter)

Blazing Reader,

Long-time patron of my work, Dr. Gary Magder, asked me to share with you a thirteen-minute video, They Brought the War Home: The British Playbook in Minneapolis. 

In it, Susan Kokinda argues that the recent chaos in Minneapolis is engineered by forces seeking to destabilize the United States and perpetuate a globalist one-world government. She connects the protests against ICE to a 170-year-old British playbook created by Lord Palmerston. Palmerston was a nineteenth-century British prime minister who wasn't too happy with the New England colonies declaring their independence.

Most of what Kokinda presents makes good sense to me. Despite all its flaws, the United States has been the greatest example of a free nation the world has yet to see. Where Kokinda starts to lose me is when she presents Donald Trump as being the prophet/saviour standing between the evil globalists and future freedom.

Researchers like Jason Christoff have presented evidence showing that rather than subverting covert British imperialism, Trump may have been put in place to facilitate it. In this article and accompanying video, Christoff shows that Donald Trump's gene line can be traced "all the way back to the Royal family in the UK."

In contrast, Bob Metz, in episode 948 of his objectivist podcast, Just Right, sees the protests against Trump's ICE brigade as "insane to the point of being stupefying," arguing that it is the protesters, not ICE, who have been inciting violence.

Opposing that view is Etienne de la Boetie², author of "Government" — The Biggest Scam in History, who unapologetically states that "Trump is obviously an installed puppet." In an episode of Freedom Phoenix, Boetie² debates Dr. Phranq Tamburr of The Trump Report, arguing that Trump has "completely betrayed" the MAGA movement.

So is Trump a puppet (pretending to fight the New World Order) or is he a patriot (playing a 5D political chess match)? Or do his loyalties lie somewhere in between the two extremes?

In the end, I'm not sure it matters much...

I have the view that the world's problems are not going to be solved by any man in the White House, but rather by individuals working together at a grass-roots level to boycott what they disagree with and support what they want to see more of. How you spend your time and money will make more difference in the world than who you vote for. 

Trump, like all the presidents before him, is the head of a criminal organization (AKA a "government") that enforces its will upon people without their consent (AKA "laws") and steals their money under threat of force (AKA "taxation").

At the very least, I hope that Trump is a better man than the criminals who have come before him. He's less dictatorial than COVID-crazy Biden, less a war-monger than WMD Bush, less a bail-out Marxist than Obama, and less an adulterer than Clinton — but none of those comparisons is setting the bar too high.

Anyway, check out the above links for opposing perspectives from respected names in the freedom movement on the possible motives, track record and history of Donald J. Trump.
