It's the same reason the cabinet is populated with people expressly opposed to the missions of their agencies.
Trump isn't there to help anyone. He's there to destroy government as a means to govern.
He's not going to use his resources to help you. He's only concerned with using them to help himself.
Stop expecting anything else.
There are no nations to people like Trump and Putin. Nations are only cogs in a giant machine of profit and grift.
They're playing an entirely different game.
Ideology is extinct for Trump. It's why he can be on three sides of one issue. Politics is a nuisance, a facade he has to keep up.
We're rubes to him. Relics of an old age he can continually sell on nostalgia.
It's just a nostalgia trap hiding a hypercapitalistic corporate raid of government by criminals looking to capitalize off outdated notions in a globalist system.
Understand that Trump and Putin are playing a game that takes place beyond our concept of nationhood and politics WHILE ALSO continuing to protect our concept of nationhood and politics.
It's difficult by design.
It's time to get smart to what this game is.
