...All the while... trump and company are DESTROYING the Federal Government

I think a significant part of what is happening, that is not highlighted by press; our Federal Government is being ripped apart. Trump is destroying our country on so many levels. We are all caught up with the day-to-day drama's, but I for one am well aware of the big picture here.

Absolute destruction is his goal, with the exception of the military, and he is succeeding. I can't even imagine what all he is doing/undoing as he sits at the helm of power. OMG! I am just feeling the utter tragedy of this situation.

May we be successful in balancing some of the odds in November.

They are also arrayed against the middle and working classes. Their constituents are the 0.1%, and their goal is to destroy govt to cut taxes on the rich.

It’s a GOP thing. Not a trump thing.

This isn’t DJTs agenda, it’s the Koch and GOP billionaire donor agenda. Pruitt and Zinke and Kobach and DeVos and Chao and Mnuchin and Pence are all GOP/Koch/billionaire operatives.

His goal is to give it all to the elite few at the top and to turn everyone else into powerless serfs.

Take apart education
Take apart our ability to compete in science
Take apart and sell off our infrastructure

on and on

He is doing it to undermine this country for our enemies.

Debunked: "We will bury you without firing a shot" - Khrushchev

Many variations on this type of statement and few that can be verified.

Yet Trump is enabling the meme.

Trump supporters celebrated their victory.

"It turns out that United Russia won the elections in America," Viktor Nazarov, the governor of Omsk, Russia, declared in a radio interview.
