Certainly possible. I've always thought that there are "decent people" behind the scenes making sure American does not "become evil".

My logic on that is because if an unopposed force existed that could take complete control of America, it would already have done so. So there must therefore be opposing forces. Thus "good guys". Or at least factions of forces. Maybe not "good" but at least benevolent or benign.

I think those people are at work right now. Trump is their hammer.

I think you guys are too valuable a propaganda tool for them to throw the hammer on you. They'd just slow boil.
