Great post. In 2016, I visited the offshore wind farm off the Scottish coast that Trump sued over, and the Scots I spoke with were not at all happy with Trump. Every time Trump talks down wind energy, I know why.
Her analysis of his motives is accurate. However, the comments section reveals that most see this as an indictment of Trump rather than the collapse of unrealized democratic ideals. These ideals served as a smokescreen for the ever encompassing juggernaut of capitalism borne from the "age of enlightenment" and the collapse of familial fuedalism. The so-called enlightenment was simply the awareness that money "trumps" a class/caste system every time. A tip of the hat to the Rothschilds.
I wrote about the issues of capitalism in my first book, “Sacred Economics: The Currency of Life.” I’ve been troubled for decades by the way capitalism commoditizes life and treats it like a liability or asset on a balance sheet, while worshiping the power of money.
Unfortunately, the bigger problem is that there are enough voters out there who like what the GOP is selling, thanks to decades of Rush Limbaugh, Fox News, OAN, and misc online sources, so that when Trump finally leaves the scene, they'll be voting for his successors. Vance in particular is even more dangerous than Trump. He can't do the standup-comedian shtick, but he's got the hatred and anger part down, and knows how to dive deep into the MAGA psyche and energize it.
FUCK OFF and DIE Donald Trump. I have said this for over 20 years. Donald Trump is a mafia "Go Boy". His Grandfather was a "Pimp" in Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada. Thats where the Trump's got their "seed money" to rape and pillage moral and proper capitalism. Fuck you Donald Trump, you fucking asshole.
Thank you for this very interesting and insightful post. It definitely resonates with my own impressions, reading, and life experience with people sharing many of Donald Trump's characteristics.

Disgusting, right? That’s what Trump wants when he says we’re going to a GOLDEN AGE! The best Ever! No thanks Mr Orange Monster!
May I share this on Facebook?
Absolutely!
Boy does this ring true! Thank you!
Eileen, did you work in Financial Services at one time?
Yes, I spent 16 years with Smith Barney as a financial adviser.
Very nice piece of work.

E.g., this is gonna be a neverending battle . . .
Your description of the repeat criminal is accurate. Somehow, he is able to twist our mighty nation to the mat and pin us there. It is an outrage.
Now, he is being used by even greedier people who want complete power to destroy our democracy. Imperfect as it is, we must fight for it.
Theil & Musk come to mind. I use to think the Koch Bros. were awful, but these guys are much, much worse!
Thank you! We need to understand him as best we can to stand up to Trumpism.🙏🏻
Very well stated

I translated in French and shared on LinkedIn, Eileen : https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/qui-est-vraiment-donald-trump-oxzve/
Ms Workman has written a brilliant expose of the Trumpster fire. I believe everything she says. Share this widely. Forewarned is forearmed.
Very helpful and insightful analysis. Ties together many observations.
Thanks for putting this together and sharing it!
Will share links with friends.
I’ll do the same!

Perfect description! He is a petty, vindictive sociopath and those who fell under his spell are in a cult!
