The US government's misbegotten drive for unipolarity is the most important issue Trump has raised. Humanity’s survival may be at stake. Call it the military-intelligence-industrial-media-complex, the powers that be, or the Deep State, if Trump follows through on his rhetoric he will be fighting the most lucrative and powerful cabal on the planet, a far greater threat to American liberties and lives than that which President Eisenhower warned of in 1961. Simply raising the issues he has accounts for the lion’s share of the fang-baring hostility towards him, especially from members of his own party. If his only accomplishment is to splinter the cabal “into a thousand pieces and scatter it into the winds,” as President Kennedy reportedly wanted to do with the CIA after the Bay of Pigs disaster, Trump will have earned his place on Mount Rushmore.

    As hard as I've tried not to vote for The Donald, I've decided to--at least for right now with my mind still open.
    But imagine Trump's face with his frontal hair chiseled into Mount Rushmore. Wouldn't that be a sight?

    My worry is if Trump follows through and takes on the issues and the cabals, he will suffer the same fate that Kennedy met.

    The last paragraph reminds me of Brussels sprouts: I know they're good for me but I don't want to eat them.
    Terr-ific analysis.

    I have been saying this since last Summer about Trump. Like him or hate him, Trump does not have to do this at all for any reason.

    If Trump were playing the establishment game, Nobody would be out to excoriate him like they are. Trump has been hailed as a super nice guy, go-getter, all round great American, right up until the point the establishment realized he was deadly serious.

    Now that he has the GOP nomination thus far, right, left, independent, are all trying to tear him down as Racist, and every other label they can come up with. Things in 40+ years he has never been accused of.

    Like him or hate him, agree with him or not, here are some FACTS:

    If elected Trump has to give up his company into a blind trust and give up entire control of his life-long empire.

    Trump has to step DOWN from his beautiful 757 which is by far nicer than AF1.

    Trump has to give up his state of the art helicopter, for an ancient Marine helicopter.

    Trump has to move out of his Gold plated penthouse into the stench infested Whitehouse the Obama's have been in.

    Trump up to now has had the personal freedom to go and do what he wants when he wants anytime he wants, but now is in reality a slave to the people, with a microscope on every second of his life, not to mention the obvious threats to his and his families lives.

    All of which he and his family NEVER had to do. He also has to give up his multi-million dollar salary for a 400k presidential salary.

    As wealthy as Romney may be, the perks of President are still a step up for Romney. There is really NOTHING that is a step up for Trump becoming President.

    Trump could get on the phone anytime, and setup a meeting with any world leader any time he wanted long before ever running for President. This is a fact. So please anyone who thinks Trump is not doing this for the Countries benefit enlighten me as to what the "upside" is of this for Trump?

    I am happy with documentaries on Netflix about those people you mention. They were very accomplished and are very inspirational.
    I have to hand it to Trump to buck the establishment and endure months of intense hatred of every single thing he does- when he really doesnt need all this. He could continue with his real estate dealings and his family and do just fine.

    Would you expect a new corporate CEO to advertise what he was going to do even before he took office and assessed the lay of the land? If Trump took 3 months to really see and understand whats going on, I would not be upset at all. I would want a reasoned response to things. God knows, what we have gotten for years and years is just politically correct nonsense in the campaigns, and then completely different actions when in office and the contributors to the campaigns want to be taken care of.

    That was a good article. kudos to you. I have wondered why there is so much negativity towards Trump when he essentially speaks out loud what we are secretly thinking anyway. But, combatting the establishment is the reason so much hate towards him is surfacing. It also surfaced relative to Bernie Sanders, and wiped him out as a candidate. Trump has my vote, and I hope he wins and carries through on his anti establishment stance.

    Thanks to Trump for speaking about an issue that others won't touch.
    Unfortunately, almost all his comments dance around the edges of issues, giving lip service and no real committment or solutions.

    "earned his place on Mount Rushmore."
    Yes, alongside that statist powermonger Teddy and dictator/war criminal Lincoln.
    Or maybe you intended to remove them to make room for a Trump-sized visage of HRM Donnie?
    Of course, the current occupant of the whitehouse would remove Washington and Jefferson to make room for Muhammad and Barry.

    Enough with the looters pretending to be heros!
    How about visages of Nicola Tesla and Thomas Edison, Philo Farnsworth and Alexander Graham Bell, William Shockley and Andy Grove, Robert Heinlein and Ayn Rand.
