That is already old news here.<br /><br />The US has been a captive of the elite for most of its history. It was set up that way.<br /><br />First chief justice of SCOTUS John Jay summed it up as those that own the country should govern it.<br /><br />US history is one of competition among factions of the ruling elite for power.<br /><br />Tom Hickeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08454222098667643650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-12923418646753740832017-02-02T20:47:14.501-05:002017-02-02T20:47:14.501-05:00Not really George has been writing about this for ...Not really George has been writing about this for decades and covers many points other journalists never write about.

What I have seen today is either hypothetical or highly politicized, and it doesn't seem worth posting here for discussion.<br /><br />The attempted soft coup is taking on a harder edge, and the divisiveness in the US increasing. The aim of some in high places seems to be destabilization, in other words, the same m. o. that the US has used in the run up to color revolutions and other forms of regime change, and the mainstream media is cooperating.<br /><br />But government is still functioning and carrying out Trump's agenda, now chiefly confirming his appointment.<br /><br />Trump chose to adopt a face pace and act crazy as a strategy, and he is sticking to it as president. The pace alone is freaking a lot of people out. In addition, no one knows what he is going to do next.<br /><br />This is only going to be possible to assess in hindsight.<br /><br />Tom Hickeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08454222098667643650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-42400094178005756062017-02-02T20:03:35.428-05:002017-02-02T20:03:35.428-05:00Tom needs to post this up.
