There is a lot of babble going on out there. Don't believe it all. Try to focus on the important stuff.
The United Nations has been advancing globalism/communism in our country for decades
Their motto has been, "Think Global, Act Local". They have done just that and have infiltrated our government at the national, state and local levels. They have infiltrated our planning commissions and have implemented their "Sustainable Development Agenda" (sla Agenda 21, Agenda 2030) in cities and counties all across the country (check you local general plan).

The "Sustainable Development" & "Smart Growth" agendas are not compatible with the US Constitution. Our elected representatives took an oath to uphold the US Constitution, but many of them have sold our liberty for grant money.

China is gaining power and influence and will eventually run the United Nations.

If we don't restore our Constitutionally limited government and fiscal responsibility, we WILL lose our freedom/country.

Trump spoke about the plight of (white) working class Americans and the corruption of the wealthy elites. That sounds like Marxism: the proletariat vs. the bourgeoisie.

No Trump did not. He always supported capitalism and business . If there was no wealth in this country we would not have any shopping malls, supermarkets, services. Go to a third world country and see the dirt roads, the lack of drinking water, no jobs, run down towns with squalor. We are fortunate to live and have wealth here.

The sky is falling, Post #674.

Turn off Breitbart and Redstate. Go outside. Visit a museum. Grab a drink with a friend.

Have a cup of coffee and a donut. Relax. Things are not as bad as they want you to believe so that you open up your checkbook for them.

Better pay attention! 5 years ago, my local Board of Supervisors attempted to change the land use for 5 acre horse properties, in an equestrian neighborhood, to small animal land use without informing the owners or asking their permission. If the residents hadn't caught it, their property values would have been devastated.

I have since moved to a state that has more respect for private property rights.

Ineptocracy*(in-ep-toc’-ra-cy) - a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

Both parties support business, because both parties are funded by business.

Third World countries have businesses too. They just don’t have a lot of natural resources to make them wealthy, or the natural resources are extracted by First World businesses and sold elsewhere.

Sounds like what we have today.

What matters is who controls the businesses.
