their policies. Best Republican president ever!

It's all a game anyway. TPTB actually love him because as a member of the Dem party he's been able to do and suggest things that would have created a huge uproar had a Republican done it. So they get their cake and eat it too. The public actions you see in the media are all a game to lead the people right where practically everyone in national politics wants them, fighting amongst each other, living in fear and under surveillance, so they can be controlled.

It's the oldest trick in the book and people of both parties are falling for it by following politics as if it were a team sport.
