The Deconstruction of Donald Trump

Donald Trump is a Capitalist, not a statesman -- and not really a politician. Discovering Twitter has made him a "star" just like discovering television made him a "celebrity." But now the rest of the celebrities have disowned him. Why? He truly is not one of them. And the stars that do rise above us all no longer recognize the "Donald" as a shining member of their club.

Donald is really a "huckster" Capitalist, making a "buck" anyway he can -- including off of the office of the Presidency of the United States. He did not really expect to win -- but he did. And now he has to deliver to all those angry Americans with all their angry expectations. The task is impossible; the job is Herculean; the desired outcomes -- are impossible. You can't go backwards in time and restore the old industries we have lost. Progress is not "regress."

And no matter how much Donald Trump takes credit for other Capitalistic growth spurts in the economy -- he is not the mastermind behind them. Donald Trump is the "huckster," the braggart businessman, the arrogant and smarmy self-appointed but voter-enhanced dictator we are now stuck with for at least four years.
