To everyone who thinks Trump was a Trojan Horse, or deepstate himself.
If you think that Trump was a Trojan Horse, or deepstate himself, you don’t understand the one key thing about politics…to the victor go the spoils. The definition of politics is “who get what.”
Politics is about rewarding your friends, and by extension in a democracy, punishing your enemies, by taking tax dollars from one group and giving it to another. If Trump was installed as some part of a powersharing agreement, you’re forgetting that for four years tax dollars didn’t go to Democrat priorities as much as Republican priorities (and we can see that switch now). Moreover, the tax cuts, where Republicans got rid of the state and local tax (SALT), that was a huge FU to blue states. So huge, it’s primarily the reason that the House went Democrat in 2018.
If Trump were installed, would they really have acted so apeshit crazy, but have been faking it the whole time, and passed on the opportunity to have Hillary keep their gravy train running? That makes zero sense.
Look, I get it, I’m upset he didn’t do enough about the cheating and thus the Dems stole the election in 2020. But sometimes the bad guys win, and the good guys lose. Happens all the time in history.
I'm with you. I can see it from your angle.
