Part Two - Neither Echo or Economy Are Good

Evil-Echo Empire Update

If the part of the GOP base who emerged from the tea-party madness & are now channeling their energy for Trump, should they ever turn their anger & fanaticism into remaking the GOP in a positive way, maybe we could reshuffle DC in such a manner leadership would actually get serious about solving problems. Unfortunately, most of these hardcore conservatives have been so brainwashed by years of echo propaganda & paranoia turning them into delusional Trumpeters, there’s probably no hope for most of them. They’re permanently trapped inside echo-bubble world where alternative facts preside over the truth. To the extent that Trump & his echo have a willing audience who literally believe them no matter how false their crazy claims are, just goes to show that base/their audiences must either be gullible beyond reason, or lack ethical values by adhering to a tribal mentality where lies are justified if they can help their side win.

Trump is attacking the press relentlessly, hoping to discredit them for a couple different reasons. He wants to make sure his fans only believe the echo so he can set up a tyrannical dictatorship, even if he’s only ruling over his base, plus he wants his Trumpeters to reject media reports when the truth comes out about the Russian scandal. Trump may singlehandedly start a civil war in our country. The echo is indeed crazy but crazy people believe them. Those various hardcore conservative talk shows & websites deliberately create controversy & entertainment value by shifting way to the right in trying to out-right each other, which is outright outrageous. As many of these articles expose, so many far-right echo hosts & commentators are totally bonkers & have done a huge amount of damage! The harm they’ve done to America is in turning what was once logical conservatism into a toxic hodgepodge mess. That entire echo-media complex out there is wide & diverse with their tentacles having its clutches in many places, but their basic rhetoric/agenda are relatively uniform as they ruin the formerly rational mindset of their audiences….

McConnell has expressed doubts Trump can save his flailing presidency. Most DC GOP politicians are quietly thinking the same thing. Trump responds by blaming others for his own mistakes. That Trump is blaming McConnell for so many ills emanating from his presidency is the height of absurdity. Word has it they’ve had shouting matches over the phone. Trump blames McConnell for not passing Trumpcare, when the facts of the matter are Trump did a terrible job selling it, even to the point public approval for it was only in the teens, so it’s remarkable it actually came so close to passing. Then there’s another case where Trump complained about Congress passing strict sanctions on Russia, which it continues to confound the senses why Trump is so subservient to Russia (Mueller may soon provide that answer). Another complaint Trump directed at McConnell & others in the Senate is not pushing back hard enough against the Russian investigation. But what is McConnell supposed to do about it other than let it play out. He’s not a compliant puppet like Nunes is over in the House. Another bizarre element from the Phoenix speech was Trump spouting off if the wall is not funded, that could spark a government shutdown. That is strange in a couple different ways, threatening another costly (dollar-wise & politically) shutdown while all along Trump had insisted it was actually Mexico who would pay for the wall.

Also in the recent articles there are warnings of vital DC business needing done very soon, none more important than raising the debt ceiling. With Trump always picking fights & clueless about governing, there’s a real danger the bungling at the top might lead to a catastrophic default. And the economic angst that helped get Trump elected in the first place isn’t going away anytime soon with all the dysfunction in DC. When Trumpeters finally start realizing Trump doesn’t have much in the way of feasible ideas for helping their personal economics, that’s when Trump’s approval ratings with his core base could crater. The basic flaw with the American economy, in this the wealthiest nation in the history of the world, a majority of their citizens are in financial distress.

which reveal a very disjointed economy where the system is indeed rigged for those at the very top. Capital/investments rule over labor/workers so the pendulum needs to swing back towards more of an equilibrium. The middle class/working class have been fighting an uphill battle for decades, so it’s imperative we find some way to level the playing field. Finding viable solutions for restoring opportunity & upward mobility won’t be easy, but what we’ve been doing certainly isn’t working. Can anybody read these first few articles & not think the system badly needs fixed?….
