To even ask the question: Is Trump the real deal? reveals a disturbing degree of naivety across a vast section of the supposedly 'awakened and aware'. The whole notion of Trump somehow being outside of the 'swamp' is ludicrous.
Trump IS A DEEP STATE ACTOR - how do you think he got to be president from outside of the Beltway? The Don and his supporters pretty much define what the 'deep state' is. But of course Trump and his cronies aren't the only deep state actors in this bizaar pantomime that somehow passes for democratic discourse in the US. It's clearly a case of "When Jew Tribes Go to War" ... a turf war between rival Israeli factions and their US deep state networks and enablers. On the one side we have the Israeli Labour party who ruled almost unopposed for more than three decades and came to 'own' the US neocon AIPAC dual citizen traitor network, and on the other side, the loony Likudniks, led of course by the ever zany Nutty Ben Shalom Yahoo.
According to the CFR, Butt Boy (Bi Bi) realised back in the late 90s after losing power that in order to challenge Labour on a long-term basis, he needed to build his own deep state, both at home and in the US with a Zio network to rival the Labour controlled AIPAC/Zio media network. The key was driving both nations to the extreme right via 'populist, dog whistle' politics. Of course, Donald Trump and his handlers were the jewel in the crown, with Fox, Breibart and many many others on the Alt Right forging the way. They even pulled out the tried and trusted Nazi playbook to breed extreme anti-semitism in order to aid the Zionist cause. So now we have the perverse spectacle of these two equally evil Zionist networks battling it out in the theatre of US politics.
Such a confluence of events involving rival Jew tribes, US reality TV 'stars', Hollywood fantasists, corrupt US politicians, the utterly discredited MSN - and with the threat of thermo nuclear war thrown in for good measure - could only ever have delivered the extremely bizarre and disturbing spectacle we're currently forced to watch.

Another parallel between then and now is the push for the legalization of mind-altering substances. Let's explore marijuana. I suppose the pot smokers are unaware that the impairment of their mind is a benefit to the globalists. Of course, most pot smokers would say I'm the one who is deluded and then proceed to list a litany of supposed benefits that this drug confers. After all, I've never met a pot smoker who didn't think he was among the smartest people on earth.
Marijuana, as a narcotic psychedelic drug, alters the way people think and, based on the people I know who use it, makes them lazy in terms of intellectual thought. This is just the kind of person a George Soros wants populating the earth. Someone who is easily pliable as long as they have their wonder herb to go home to (puts me in mind of Soma from Brave New World).
Let's legalize it and all go to sleep.

Agree that's their agenda but it does wake many people up to what's happening.

It amazes me that so few see that the "election," actually the charade for the dumb goy, was reversed in the middle of the day; the only logical reason for that being the dumping of pizzagate by an insider. Equally amazing is how tiny the few who realize that the parties are all owned by the Rothschild cabal guaranteeing that every candidate that can get a name on the ballot is a cabal prostitute anyway, so real candidate difference is nil. Since practically ALL the elite, in every "professional" category and world wide, is heavily involved in the child sacrifice, etc. in exchange for satanic grants of worldly power, the threat of the continued dumping of this evil unless Hillary was dumped had to win out or the whole world elite would have been exposed and even the top dogs would be hanging from lamp posts. Thus, their backup, Trump, instead of Hillary.
In as much as it was revealed decades ago by an insider that "when they put Hillary in she will declare martial law" it seems that Trump's appointments of both military salivators for rigid population control and Wall St. criminals with the ability to cause instant chaos, plus the media and Soros paid constant drumming against Trump, reveals the perfect agenda being orchestrated to guarantee that Trump will declare martial law right on schedule.

I think both the primary article and the attached Perloff material on the Vietnam War are masterpieces. Incidentally, it was American packable 75mm guns that blew the French away at Dienbienphu. There are two versions of the movie Apocalypse Now. In the longer version, not shown in the theaters, there is a clear statement from French mouths that America helped to topple their Indochinese Empire with hopes of attaining it for itself. There is also a revealing depiction of the Bob Hope troupe as essentially being prostitutes for elite users, with Bob Hope being a pimp. Well worth seeing. I rented it thinking it was the original version and it was not. Incidentally, the heroin trade of the Golden Triangle was the major objective of the Secret War in Laos, just as it plays a major role in the US intervention in Afghanistan today. Kudos to Perloff.

Again James is "spot on" in his assessments on the present state of the Trump Presidency.
Doesn't surprise me that George W would choose Hillary over Trump. He very often caved in to the democratic opposition forces during his rein as President whenever they put a little heat on him. Bush Jr. really feared being unpopular with the MSM and the existing "deep state" in Washington.
Hillary Clinton's desire for a two state solution may have been the only baggage that kept her from becoming President.
America never fully recovered from the Marxist led Counter Culture Psy Op of the late 1960's. The Immorality, Drugs, and Free Love are still running rapid among too large of a segment of the US population and the "free world".
Trump is for real, at least so far.
