All the while companies move to cheaper nations then sell the same products back to us at huge profit margins then hide the money in tax havens. Merkel allowing muslims to stream across the border has irrevocably changed Germany and her culture. Trump wants to stop this so the battle will get much much worse. I'm for a strong America. Let's clean up the inner cities, give opportunities to the poor to work and support themselves. Let's bring the jobs back so everyone has a shot and not push free trade that brings America down to 3rd world countries.
if trump was planning on doing all that ,id be delighted , however ,he has stuffed his cabinet with wall st globalists

it looks like he has said one thing but plans to do something else ( more of the same )

In America, yes. Anyone (obviously not everyone has the talent) can. Just look at Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, Larry Page, Sergey Brin and Jeff Bezos, just to name a few.

They pay billions in tax, donate generously, employ 100's of thousands.... but they're still not paying their fair share. Right .

They suppprt who ever protects their interests. And let's be real, membership in a mainstream political party, in Washington, means that the 1% is your bff.

if you think anyone can end up like those guys , your deluded , now that delusion may serve you well but most people are simply not talented enough to become a multi millionaire , you can work like an ant and simply not be talented enough ( smart enough ) , does that mean said people deserve the scrap heap ?

Exactly. The true richest people in the world don't get their numbers published because they own the governments and the media outlets.

When J.P. Morgan died it was discovered that he was a minority owner of J.P. Morgan Bank. I think it was a 20% stake. But he got his name used on the buildings because he was a Rothschild front man as were the Carnegie's and Rockefeller's among others.

J.P. Morgan was also one of the banks that bankrolled the Russian Revolution and the butchering of 60 million Russian Christians including the Czar and his family.

In this, our generation, the project is white genocide through taking away the jobs that allow Westerners to have and support families while flooding the Western world with third world hordes and making the former white middle classes pay for the third world'ers to breed and live by giving immigrants huge tax breaks to buy gas stations, 7-11's, Dunkin Donuts etc... while also giving the ones who don't buy businesses food stamps, free housing, monthly stipends etc...

"They" are behind it all.

Hopefully Trump and Putin can help us.

Putin knows exactly what's going on. He's spoken about it and is doing everything to encourage Russian family formation and to keep the hordes out of Russia.

That's why he's demonized by the Zionist/Communist left and the Rothschild owned Western Governments and media outlets.

It's always been the King and the Royal Family screwing over the Serfs. Accept your fate.
