I suspect Javanka know that it is only a matter of time before the political winds shift and Trump becomes persona non grata even in the Republican Party.
His ideology won't disappear for people who are patriotic. Institutions might turn their back on it, but they are just placeholders for the CCP anyways, their treason optimized by Americas enemies. Institutions are what Americans and even their allies don't trust, with good reason in some cases.
This distrust is not going away. All Trump did was call it out publicly as a politician which is a no-no as donors and their backers have never liked this. Unless you live in California, New York or D.C, you view a very different America. Europe views America as these three states as well, which isn't going to bode well for Americas influence when these states are rampant with the alt-left and socialists.
“Placeholders for the CCP”? Where do you come up that vacuity? American institutions are what make this country strong and stable.
Of course, you being a foreigner may have no interest in wanting a strong and stable America.
Stick with spouting your inconsequential opinions to the Canadian boards.
Oh yes, these institutions make a "strong and stable" America. Talk about not wanting a successful America.
Do you think it's the Snowflakes in New York who are going to be lining up to fight against a foreign aggressor? How about securing your southern border, or dealing with foreign spies in you midst?
There are some institutions who are failing America and they do so at the individual and leadership level, especially in places where the average person only has interest in an institution if it will improve their personal power and wealth.
Who in their right mind, for instance, would place a former Communist voter as the head of the CIA? Who in their right mind would pursue "critical race theory" in their schools to indoctrinate children? Who with even a shred of cerebral activity would push for recruitment videos that focus on the individual and their personal differences rather than a focus on "team (country) first"?
America First was so direct that people are more openly rejecting it. Not that they haven't been rejecting it with their actions the last 30 years. The institutions are failing America, as Western politicians more closely resemble wealthy emperors and a monarchy than they do a democracy full of hard working, talented public servants.
First, you show an astounding lack of understanding of the American political system. When we speak of American institutions we are speaking of Federal Institutions. Those institutions consist of the courts, the legislative and executive branches and the agencies that comprise those institutions. To insinuate they are placeholders for the CCP is just plain dumb at best and pure McCarthyism at worst.
The brilliance of the American system is that it allows States to be crucibles of democracy. Conservatives seem to lose control of their bodily functions over certain policies of the State of New York, specifically, or liberal states in general, but it is a State’s perorgative when it comes to state related issues, such as in the area of education. We can see what works and what does not.
The problem is conservatives..strike that…true conservatism is dead in the US..make that Trumpists have no faith in democracy anymore. If they did, they would realize our Constitutional Republic is self-correcting. It is the brilliance of our democratic institutions.
You may have lost faith in Canadian democracy, but don’t project your insecurities and doubts on to our system.
Oh, I understand. So the Clinton Foundation was on the "up and up"? How many career multi-millionaire politicians do you have in California and New York alone? Is this due to their great savvy investment skills that would make Warren Buffett blush?
Your southern border has been a sieve to such a degree that you have over 20M illegals in America, and apparently it's because the nation they flee is such a serial human right abuser. If this is all true, and not the economic pursuit some have when replacing legal, U.S workers, then,
why doesn't America ban travel and business to these nations? It's because nobody is buying that this anything more than economic opportunity masked as something else
. How can politicians betray their oath to defend your country from such brazen foreign influence?
These are all a part of your institutions and
it bothers me that there are certainly patriotic people wanting to see America succeed, but too many who don't give a damn. The patriots become increasingly isolated and even destroyed as they watch others play the game for their own selfish gain. Whether that game is political or sheer betrayal of your principles.
Once citizens feel "the game is rigged" you are not only going to lose countless citizens to foreign intelligence efforts and, exceptional talent (as Canada and some rigged systems do)
you also have those rising to power who feel invincible and/or place their personal benefit above your nation.
Foreign spies don't need to do much in such cases, just pay and play (both friend and foe). They've been doing it for some time now because you never see a politician in handcuffs (the odd GOP you do I suppose) for doing far worse than even some double agents.
As a kid of the 80s, I'm old enough to understand the differences between sheer patriotism and American global influence and, what we've been seeing certainly over the last 25 years or so. The scary aspect of this is that it is getting worse as media are lock and step in this division.
I'm not sure if it's amusing or frightening that some still pretend they aren't seeing what they are seeing. There is a big difference between progress and regression that harms a nation.
This is a war of attrition that your enemy wants you to believe you can win, as they know with over 1 Billion citizens they have endless human resources to ensure victory.
