"That was the goal...of the "elites" who run you/America....China did not initiate this debacle, traitors within did." Bingo my friend, you hit the nail right on the head. "A nation can survive its fools and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within" Whether the polices of the elite were intentional, or unintentional as a by-product of their insatiable greed, the outcome is the same. When the interests of the kleptocrats are diametrically opposed to that of the 90%, dissenting voices were needed, but alas with centuries of practice the elite knows how to shift the fault lines within a society. Divide & rule and the plebs fall for it every time.

Trump is acutely aware of the Jewish problem. Google Trump Christmas. He is the best man for the job because he has no ill will towards Jews as such. A son and daughter are married to Jews. Expect him to address all sorts of issues that make Zionists, Neocons and Talmudists squirm. He's already doing it and they are squealing. But don't expect him to talk about Jews directly. That would not be to the point.

Good post, especially on the Dancing Mossads of 9/11.

I must add though that the Rothschild banksters are really a separate scheme from that of Zion and the Zionists. Like mafia rival "families," they do work together, but both the banksters and Zion are indeed separate schemes. The two joined forces during WW-I, and have been essentially working together ever since.

The Rothschilds extract their plunder via fiat-debt and dependent governments. Zion extracts their plunder via corporate power, especially in energy, and purchased governments, fascism.

The Rothschilds in the DC US exert their power primarily via the Pentagon. Zion, via the CIA. New York is the Rothschilds' base of operations in the DC US, and Texas the same for Zion.

Being that they work closely enough together, it is safe to call their combined scheme Zion, but knowing that they are really two separate schemes working together can help when there seems to be conflicting action or behavior by power.

The 1970s revealed a nearly public tug-a-war between the two. The creation of the Tri-Lats by the Rothschilds to then install their guy Carter in the Puppet Office. The CIA then nearly getting their guy installed in 1980 (and 1981), and ultimately being successful ever since with Bush Sr., Clinton, Bush Jr., and now CIA-Obama.

Zion is winning in the internal power struggle of the two due to their success in creating a popular support base within the American "heartland," the evangelical Christians. This was most evident during the Bush Jr. regime. Not only did Rove openly triumphant this fact, but others have written books on it, especially this one: http://www.amazon.com/American-Theocracy-Politics-Religion-Borrowed/dp/0...

Zion is a scheme, not an ethnicity..

MY income is less than £5K (on a good year) but my outgoings are still less and I have no debt.

That allows me more time for myself and my family and I can buy more of that chinese electronic gear than many of my peers who earn ten times the sum I get.

Money is overrated.

Simple logic diuctates that the Wall St. banking mafia betrayed America to enrich themselves by *looting* all the producing jobs and shipping them overseas and in the process they have brought the global economy to the brink of disaster.

Donald Trump's success so far is the nation's collective middle finger to our own fucked up government.  We're tired of both parties fucking us over.  We're tired of our elected "leaders" so beholden to their large donors that they've stopped caring about the nation.  We're tired of people who hate the country ACTIVELY pursuing policies to make thing worse for us.  The whole fucking place is rotten to the core.  

Is he the answer?  No.  But that's not what's driving his popularity.  He's the only guy acting like a LEADER right now.  And what he's doing is called WINNING (we like winners, even if they are assholes).  The rest are political scumbags who see themselves as entitled little bureaucrats just waiting their turn at the seat of power- nothing more.

He could have run as an R or a D, and it would have made no difference.

You mean Friedmanite logic enacted by Greenspan and consorts under NWO and Clintonian Most favoured surrogate producer status started the Outsource ball rolling to ping ponged China.

And now China gets sucked into QE/ZIRP invented by the FED of reserve. Its the commodity to WS stocks decoupling since 2012 ramp up of QE in EU/Japan/UK to sustain stawks, after Ben's game began in 2009, that started this stawk to commodity divide.

So Trump, you dumb suction pump of Casino bankruptcies, where did ya learn your economic thinking?

Here is an interesting story.  I am no angel.  Do not pretend to be.  Had lived in college town and the parties never stopped.  I worked hard but 3-11 shift and was there nearly every weekend or at the lake.  During one evening at the local pub with my friend, a guy who never appealed to me retaliated when I refused to spend time with him by putting a hallucinogic in my glass (Ginger ale for dry mouth was my preference).  I did not realize it until 6 am when I was wide awake.  I basically just waited for everyone to wake up so I could visit them.  Waited until 9 am, headed to the lake.  Felt like a superstar.  Energized and astounded by the clarity, it was truly a great day.  My brother later stated that something was in town, but I do not remember what, blotter, mescaline.  I did not drink my entire drink, so half of it set me on 18 hours of living in another dimension.  It was fun but if the situation was that I had to go to work or a class, that would have changed everything.  Thank god it was Sunday.

I prefer Trump because he is the only one who is promising to build a fence on the border

Guraranteed no once else on the list is going to build a fence

If Trump doesnt build the fence, he is then just another puppet candidate.  The others arent any smarter. Most of them were either groomed from birth, or fabricated in places like the State government of Florida to pose as whatever the handlers think will sell

If Trump builds the fence, and especially if Trump polices the fence there are less people coming after my goods.

Regardless of the 20-30 million illegals already here, the illegal alien flow will not stop without a manned barricade. It is a better investment to pay a border guard, then to support a borderline  barbarian peasant with drug resistant TB in subsidized housing. 

Trump is the only one in the gtoup with any working credentials dealing in the scam called banking. Everyone else takes advice directly though the professors,  bankers, or they read the WSJ. Carly Fiorina was McCain's campaign financial advisor. Puppets leading the puppets

From what I see, no one is smart enough to unwind the sytem created by warlords protecting their own assets. Just build the fence before another 2 million come in

Got sent over there by the Company 10yrs ago...true story, walking down the street one evening and had to take a mighty shit one night, there was a kid selling some hand made origami bugs made out of palmfronds or something...I made a deal to rent the shirt he was wearing, and quickly pucker walked into the alley, dropped trow, and took a massive dump!  Wiped my ass with his shirt and gave it back to him..now thats free trade there! 

We both learned a lesson, in a 'Global Economy' sooner or later, somebody is gonna get some shit smeared all over them...both me and that kid are wearing shit stained shirts, but at least he got paid and can make bugs to sell..

I shudder to think what Obama is going to do if we see a 2008 type crash.  Expect in our near future if this continues:

 

1. Nationalizing of every sector of the economy except banking

2. Bank Bailins

3. Short selling outlawed

4. Massive wasteful stimulas by executive order.

5. Martial law, arrests of scapegoats

I agree.  And further, I wonder how what Obama would do would differ from what anyone else visibly on the scene would do.  Not much, based on what I'm seeing.  If you don't look at the specific names involved, just at the high-level policy directions, we're in year 35 of Reagan.
