What do these guys have to complain about?

Of all the people in the country who have the least to complain about, why does the Trump posse seem like the angriest?

“If I were to run, I’d run as a Republican. They’re the dumbest group of
voters in the country. They believe anything on Fox News. I could lie
and they’d still eat it up. I bet my numbers would be terrific.” - Donald J. Trump, our President

And he did...and they do....

Didn't Donald Trump just prove himself to be correct on November 8th?

It is hard to imagine that this guy Trump has any ideological seriousness. He doesn't stand for anything. He has had many different positions on the same issues over the years. There is absolutely no consistency to his message except that he wants you to kiss his ring.

In all honesty I would like someone to tell me what Steve Bannon, Donald
Trump, Roger Ailes, Rudy Guiliani, etc., are experiencing that puts a
giant chip on their shoulders. What injustices and restrictions have
any of them faced that prevented them from being billionaires or multi
multi millionaires. They have all the money anyone could want...they take sex whenever they want it. They just "grab it". As white males they are the most privileged class
of Americans (by far). What is it about the framework of the American
Capitalist system that has been so objectionable and restrictive for
them? What did Obama do over the last 8 years that made their lives so
miserable or their financial portfolios so diminished?

Under Obama, the rich definitely got even richer. The stock market was at an
all time high. The poor got less of the pie than before...the poor are
losing ground. What is it that gets them out of bed in the morning so
agitated?? Are the illegal immigrants not cleaning their private planes
as well as the white workers did? Are they all furious that women have
abortion rights in this country? Are they irate that cake shop owners
are forced to make wedding cakes for gay couples? Is that what has put
them over the edge?


You are not going to convince me for a second
that it is because they care so much about the little guy or that they are empathetic towards the unemployed, outcast, and marginalized? Is
it that they are so concerned that every American have a fair
opportunity to go to college and that Wall Street might once again
bankrupt the working class? Do they want to make an America where more
people have a chance to be millionaires and more people, of all races
and backgrounds, male or female, have the same chance at respect and
prosperity, the ability to feed their families?

Are they disgusted by virtually ALL in the science community who have diagnosed the role of man made global warming and even further disgusted about all the talk about clean and renewable energy?
Are they sick and tired of those who believe in Evolution getting a seat
at the table? Is that the issue that keeps them from smiling and has
kept them frothing at the mouth for the last 8 years?


These guys are buying more caviar than they ever have. They are building more
hotels, acquiring more goods and services and seeing their net worths
increase exponentially since the first "Muslim illegitimate" President
took over the White House.


Do they want to protest all the foreign countries that Obama has invaded and all the wars he has
started? All the American soldiers that are coming back in body bags or
without arms, legs, brains, or sanity? No, that was W. Bush. Do any
of them want to go back to the W. Years?


No way! These guys want to create an America that is more white, more macho, easier to
exploit, than it presently is....they don't care about the "little guy"
at all. They have hearts the size of raisins. They have egos the size
of aircraft carriers. They want to rig the system for themselves and
make America white again. They watched "Mad Men" and they all thought
it would be great to go back to that era again.

I understand the frustration with some of the excesses of liberalism and PC conformity. I can see making a little course correction there....I could see making some changes to school choice or making some other rearrangements of the furniture....but why rig the system even more in favor of the rich and the white? Why align with racist factions and misogynists? Why does it seem like this is a Presidency void of empathy and compassion?
I agree that Hillary was a horrible messenger for Integrity and Change. She was entrenched, entitled, status quo....but these guys remind me of "The Godfather". Everyone is looking out for their own interests. They have all the money but they want the power (and more money).

Food for Thought...
