What Trump represents and its ironic because he is of the elite, is that people are protesting against the last thirty years of elitism. Social mobility in America is on a par with the UK, its a myth! if you want to live the American dream, move to Denmark! Obama was a puppet for the elites and Hillary is of their ilk too, the DNC is bought and sold by corporate interests whose sole aim is to control and preserve the status quo.
Look how it has never been worse for the kids, my goodness the first generation where they are not better off than their parents, they are burdened with debt from education that they may never be able to pay off, the chances of them owning a house in some parts of the UK are negligible. This is why Sanders was so popular with the kids until he sold out.
Will Trump change anything? I doubt it, but lets be reasonable Hillary will change nothing. A vote for Hillary is a vote for elitism. Now as a socialist in nature you can see why I have a problem with that.

Originally posted by lemondropYes it must be very frustrating to be honest. Perhaps Trump because of his past allegiance to the Democrats and his present status as a Republican nominee can unite it some, I dunno, but yeah better buckle up times are gonna get tough!
the problem over the last 8 or so years is that america has had a congress unwilling to work with the president
it is only going to get worse
the do nothing republicans will become the do nothing democrats if trump wins or it will stay the same if clinton wins
tough times ahead

That is not to say someone like a billionare isn't lining his pocket with dollars. Money is power, always has been always will be in the future.

Edit lo and behold, the Donald said it!
Money was never a big motivation for me, except as a way to keep score. The real excitement is playing the game.

Never kid yourself my old friend. Money does have power. How do you think the Trumpster got to where he is? It certainly wasn't from his charm and good looks.

Originally posted by Very Rustybut I am not kidding anyone Rusty old bean, I understand that money carries with it power, what I am disputing is that money was Mr.Trumps motivation and as can clearly be seen from the text above quoted by JS357, this was not the case, its a game for Trump.

Unadulterated source of pure news!
"Zero Hedge is an English-language financial blog that aggregates news and presents editorial opinions from original and outside sources. The news portion of the site is written by a group of editors who collectively write under the pseudonym 'Tyler Durden' (a character from the novel and film Fight Club).
"Zero Hedge has been characterized in the media as conspiratorial, anti-establishment and pessimistic, occasionally producing misleading information. Critics have alleged that the site 'reliably peddles Russian propaganda.' Former Zero Hedge writer Colin Lokey claimed he was pressured to frame issues in a way he felt was 'disingenuous,' summarizing its political stances as 'Russia=good. Obama=idiot. Bashar al-Assad=benevolent leader. John Kerry=dunce. Vladimir Putin=greatest leader in the history of statecraft.' Purported Zero Hedge founder Daniel Ivandjiiski countered that Lokey could write 'anything and everything he wanted directly without anyone writing over it.' "
