What is Trump's MAGA and is it good or bad? part 4 of "10 WAYS TO UNDERSTAND TRUMP AND STOP FEARING CHANGE"
4. Trump and his MAGA what does it mean?
The short answer is that MAGA means Make American Great Again. But to really
know the significance of the phrase, a quick history lesson is in order.
Since the end of the second World War in 1945, America, was the pre-eminent
nation. The British Empire was bankrupt by 1945, its industrial base was in
ruins, she owed enormous sums to the US and was simply unable to afford
to maintain it's empire. America with it's economy on a war footing,
undamaged but swollen with over capacity was about to go through it's
golden period as millions of de-mobilized soldiers met the industrial
overcapacity and created the worlds biggest cashed up
consumer market.
What happened next is open to debate. My view is that America's remaining
'gilded age' oligarch families with adult male heirs, primarily the Rockefellers,
then secretly corrupted and rigged almost every institution and market. That
these same families had profited from both sides in both World Wars, gives you
some idea as to their loyalty beyond profits to themselves. As the wealthiest
people in the strongest nation they felt entitled to secure themselves spoils
acquired from the US 'empire'.
These families had already used their charitable Foundations, political think
tanks and discussion groups to secretly gain enormous control over almost every
institution in America. They controlled the medical profession and caused it to
dispense with centuries of natural remedies and become an offshoot of their
monopoly pharmaceutical industry. They controlled education and curriculum
and used academic tenures and financial rewards to have history re-written
to better suit the control and monopoly worldview they held.
As well they held tight controls on what was and wasn't taught in each level of
education. Vocational training was their masterstroke in creating a mass of
uniformally trade driven and uninquisitive population of workers.
Add to them middle managers educated in the narrowest possible skillset and
professionals educated through tightly controlled and vetted Universities with
oversight by equally controlled professional standards societies. The result was
a new class system called Egalitarianism, you see everyone has an equal
opportunity, only if you can afford the university fees and professional
society fees.

5 Rockefeller Sons. One of the wealthiest American Oligarch families.
The mega rich family oligarchies were able to use their knowledge of secrets
and influence of all levels of Government to ensure themselves greater profits.
They knew for example, that the colonial powers - Britain, France, Portugal,
Holland and Belgium would all face civil unrest from their colonies after the
Second World War ended. Independence movemements were spreading
and soon Colonies would fight for their freedom. Empire was a dirty word.
Therefore the new American pre-eminent power would use the concepts of
'democracy' and freedom in place of empire. The vast wealth of the oligarch
families and military power of the US would ensure compliance. Empire by
another name.
With America, itself the product of armed rebellion, many of these former
colonies looked for support and encouragement for their independance
movements. But the America of 'we the people' had long since been bought
and sold. The oligarch families were firmly in control of politics and the two
parties. America was being run as a corporate monopoly while outwardly
pretending to be an entreprenuerial free market and democracy. Make no
mistake, colonialism was rejected by the US. But the independence groups
found very quickly that civilian Americans with deep pockets had arrived,
the CIA. These deep pocketed Americans encouraged the former colonies
to break away from their colonial masters. Towards US style democracy
and free markets. Particularly as the cold war with the Soviets started in
earnest.
The reality for newly independant nations, was that US money flowed to
compliant locals who then ran for political office. When these surrogates
won power, the new nation would be flooded with US companies looking
for resource leases or buying up local Companies that had declined in the
turmoil of independance. With the loot pouring in from around the globe,
the financial operations in New York were fast becoming the new financial
world capital with London in decline. Often enabled by sophisticated
Agreements and concessions, it took decades for these post colonial nations
to understand how they had become so economically chained to the
US.
The oligarch families by the 1960's were third and fourth generation and
had evolved. No longer where they ‘the elite families’ their influence
became much harder to identify, because elite family money had
become International bankers and financiers.
Donald Trump's formative years were 1955 to 1962. The absolute golden
peak of American power. A generation of new families and their children,
the baby boomers contributed to a massive economic expansion. Much
like China has shown in the last fifteen years. Is it any wonder that Trump
is fixated on Making America Great Again? When as a growing young adult
it seemed as if anything was possible and every year brought new wealth
and abundance. President Kennedy, the youngest ever White House resident
announced his policy that there be a manned space mission to the moon by
decades end. Even the stars would be conquered by American greatness.
But America by the 1960's was no longer a nation ruled by Democracy and
'we the people'. The Presidency was an expensive but visibly necessary
competition to maintain the fiction of representative democracy. From
Kennedy onwards each President required more money to win and came
increasingly burdened by the expectation, demands even of their donors.
Some have theorised that President Kennedy's father Jack burdened him
with arrangements (he would never honour) to unions and mob bosses.
Kennedy only defeated Richard Nixon in 1960 by 100,000 votes in total
across the nation. So the Chicago union and mob bosses believed Kennedy
owed them.
LEFT: Headlines announce Kennedy's razor thin win against Nixon in the 1960
election.
RIGHT: Kennedy at a Chicago rally during his campaign, with Mayor Daley.
Kennedy wasn't quite the legendary figure that's been created. However
he was an inspiring speaker who dreamed big and sought to improve life
for everyone. He also had the balls to stand up to militarists like General
Curtis Le May who during the Cuban missile crisis was almost taunting the
President he wasn't man enough to launch a full nuclear strike. Kennedy
instead stared the generals down and correctly assumed that a personal
communication to the Russian leader could diffuse this potential ‘end of
world’ moment. While it may have saved an unnecessary nuclear exchange and
millions of innocent lives, Kennedy had made important enemies amongst
the military. Prior to this incident he’d been mislead by the CIA and fired
it’s head Allen Dulles, a legendarily corrupt founding member of the
intelligence community. He’d stated his intention was to
“…break the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it to the wind”.

them.
CENTRE: Pres. Kennedy with CIA Head Allen Dulles and Former CIA Head John McCone.
BOTTOM: Pres. Kennedy in the motorcade Dallas Texas. He has less than half an hour to live.
In the end, I speculate a combination of overlapping interests like the
Rockefellers, the CIA, the military and the arms manufacturing
corporations and international bankers decided Kennedy had to go.
They also decided to make it a public display, future Presidents take note.
Whether it’s all just a coincidence or proof of the very controlled manner
of US Presidential elections, how is it possible that as well as Vice President,
soon to be President Lyndon B Johnson was in Dallas that day, but so was
the next President after Johnson, Richard Nixon? As well as George Herbert
Walker Bush and his son future President GW Bush? Kennedy’s public
execution would have been very real to four future Presidents, it's message
crystal clear: do not ever go off script.
The public assassination solved a problem for the special interests but it
traumatised the nation for forty years. Like everyone who can remember it,
Trump would have been profoundly affected by Kennedy's assassination. Is it
any wonder he has ordered the release of all remaining Government documents
on the Kennedy assassination?
Since 1963 and the Kennedy assassination a shadow passed over America.
Something fundamentally changed. It seemed like the Presidency became a
commodity. Bought and sold by the power elite, Presidents acted primarily for
their patrons and Kennedy provided an example of what happens if they don't.
Time and again in speeches, Presidents explained how enacting the policies
their donors asked for, would eventually benefit the people. It never happened.
It turns out the International Financiers had rigged the economics too. Creating
the Chicago school of trickle down wealth theories (never ever worked) and
austerity budgeting for social welfare, which did work, to the detriment of life
in US cities.
In the 1970's as heavy industry relocated to Japan, then China and US inner
cities became run down crime zones, no-one could yet see the peril in the
economic theories boosted by the oligarch families and given respectability by
Universities themselves financed from oligarch family trusts. The central
plank of the Chicago school of Economics was belief that loosening
taxes and laws on big business would result in bigger profit and a subsequent
‘trickle down’ effect to eventually increase wages and wealth of the middle and
working class. How the elites and oligarchs must have laughed when nations
around the globe accepted this poisonous society - destroying economic
hocus pocus.
After loosening taxes and regulations, corporations posted huge profits
and then simply moved their factories and operations offshore to low wage
counties. The Corporations then got their second gift of lower taxes for their
increased profits. The whole charade was just cover for the blatant wealth
transfer from the middle class to Wall Street. It was a masterful slow motion pick
pocketting of the wealth of ordinary Americans. Most revealingly it was planned
and obvious to insiders that these policies would have exactly this result.
Meanwhile by the late 1980's the Internationalist Bankers and Financiiers we
once knew as the elite oligarch families had gone global. Nations were no longer
of interest unless they could be exploited. America only existed in order to
funnel wealth upwards and out in the form of investment. Other developing
nations were far more attractive to deal with. Their leaders easily bribed to keep
low wages, low taxes and few regulations to worry about. Corporations were
producing goods for next to nothing and gaining massive returns on the finished
goods when sold back to American consumers. Many of whom by now were
maintaining their lifestyle via low interest and almost unlimited credit.
After 1990 the Globalists had new territories to exploit in the post communist
countries. America was no fun for business, too regulated, too unionised,
too expensive, too many rules about environmental and pollution issues.
For the Presidencies of Bush 1, Clinton, Bush 2 and Obama, just reread the
last sentence but end it with the words "so they de-regulated as much as
they could get through". In truth, each of these Presidents where just part
of the giant donor/patron money laundering scheme that Washington had
become. None of these Presidents cared in the slightest bit how American
people were being fleeced. They had a job to do, which was please their
donors, keep up the facade of democracy, smile and keep the wheel turning.
The stripping of American wealth and it's eventual upwards mobility to
fewer and fewer people was an exponential phenomenon. It was impossible
to detect for many years, then as people first began to notice, become concerned
and then wonder why no action was being taken we had 0.1% owning more
than 90%.
In 2017 The 3 Richest Americans Hold More Wealth Than Bottom 50% Of The Country
Enter Donald Trump. His messaging and his methods woke up American voters.
People started to see how Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama and potentially
another Clinton was like fixing a toothache with a shotgun. Not only was this
no way to run a democracy, it was no way to run an economy. Trumps
basic message made sense to those who felt as if they were becoming less wealthy
each year. In the end with nothing to lose, how could they vote for more of
the same with Clinton?
Trumps policies for MAGA are simple. Restore America to a time when it
was economically ascendant, when there were no rigged markets or globalists hollowing
out the nations wealth. Politics was about policy not money, immigration was
controlled and supra national institutions did not have rule over and above
national laws.
Trump faced unprecedented opposition during his campaign and after winning
the election. Maybe you can begin to see why. Big established power centres,
elite oligarch families, wall street and bankers has become used to always
running the country how they see fit, regardless of who is the President.
But in November 2016 for whatever reason, they lost control of the narrative.
Trump is the real deal. He fully intends dismantling the globalist strings that
impede MAGA. He still has many who oppose him, but is sytematically upending
traditional playing fields and established methods of solving problems.
Trumps creates his own paradigm and his own field of battle. Opponents scramble
to catch up and usually falter by displaying overconfidence or being far too cautious.

I enjoyed the post. You have some good points and I enjoyed the historical viewpoint. I completely understand and agree that money has seeped too much into politics. I have a very similar historically minded macro approach. (Feel free to read one). Anyway, where I think your trust is misguided is in Trump. As much as I agree someone is needed to grind against the status quo, he is ill fitted. I will ignore any of his other controversial actions or ideologies and focus squarely on MAGA and bringing wealth back to the middle and working class. He is not smart and has no grasp on policy or the multilayered complexity of issues. Whether it be healthcare, taxes, trade, etc. Read some of his interview transcripts when he is asked questions. It is embarrassing how little he knows and the shallowness of his insight. How can a leader direct of tackle a complex conglomerate with his intelligence? I could go on for pages and pages of examples if you really need. He doesn't know how trade works, what the nuclear triad is, that the virgin islands is a u.s territory, that the increase in the stock market does not decrease the national debt. He didn't even know what the European Union was! Besides that he is extremely unlikable for anyone who doesn't support him immensely. I don't know anyonewho likes a narristic, compulsive liar, that insults anyone he doesn't like and brags about himself constantly. If someone is going to tackle the system and really bring about change, they have to be likable and trustworthy so the American people can get behind them. Third is his ego. Time and time again, Trump shows he often only thinks of himself. A egocentric mindset like that and limited peripheral knowledge about others is not a recipe for revolutionary social and economic change. He can be manipulated like no one I have ever seen. His opinion changes at the drop of a coin, which is true of most politicians, but Trump is truly special in that category.

Spot the puppet - it's name is chump and it has a kick arse comb over..
Have you ever stopped to consider that you are completely on the wrong track?
If you haven't, I invite you to do so.
Because, having read some of your comments elsewhere, I think you are doing yourself a grave disservice and are on the road to destroying your own credibility.
Clearly you have things you want to say. You want to engage. This is a very good thing to do, engagement is the key to a healthy democracy. But, what is it you are trying to say? What engagement are you expecting? Are you looking for confirmation of how astute you are posting public photo of Trump and Netanyahu? Do you have inside knowledge of what was agreed to? Do you have any concept of how the middle east has already transformed since Trump was elected?
There are many narratives and positions about the middle east that are now redundant. The whole Jew/Arab/Christian/Muslim/Sunni/Shiite divide is redundant. You just don't know about it, because you are stuck in that old and now irrelevant paradigm.
Consider me to be a person from the near future telling you all this. Consider I am travelling a short distance back to today and I am giving you a chance at redemption. Because in less than a year all your beliefs about the middle east will be proven wrong. You will be proven so wrong and reality will be so at variance with these current beliefs that you will struggle to deal with it.
A year from now you will see a peaceful middle east with Arabs and Israeli's living in harmony, working together on regional goals and moving amongst each other as brothers.
Now you've read the future consider how your beliefs will stand up under this new reality.
Jeepers - OK we'll revisit this in a year then!
One wonders what you will do when faced with the reality, which is so very different from how you portray it.
I am correct, there is no question of it. So indulge me as a fellow steemian, assume that all the arab nations and Israel are alllies. That the Arab nations have been allies with Israel secretly since 2015. They have also invested 2 trillion dollars into Israeli weapons research industries to develop a whole generation of super weapons. All are designed to be targeted, directed energy weapons to minimize collateral damage and civilian casualties. In fact these weapons were used to kill all the Hezbollah, Al Quds and IRG officers and commanders in Syria between 2016 and today.
Qatar play acted as Irans ally, sold them weaponry which was electronically de activated. Advanced electronic warfare aircraft flying near Irans borders deactivated any remaning offensive capability. No war, no fighting.
They perform a regime change in Iran remove the mullahs and allow proper elections, which results in a democratic moderate Government.
All is revealed, the middle east, allowed their full rein by Trump solved their own problems. They federate into a loose EU style group allowing free trade and movement.
Hamas are told they are no longer required and to either disarm or be eliminated. Free elections in Palestine. Palestine rehabilitated and offered provisional entry to the Arab/Israeli federation within 5 years. Massive Arab investment into Palestine.
So, assume those events have ocurred. Tell me if that changes anything for you? If so what exactly.
