        No, you don’t understand. He is occasionally rude to both high ranking republicans and democrats on twitter and in fox news interviews. That means he’s tough on the establishment, duh 🙄

        Former President Donald Trump asked oil industry executives last month to donate $1 billion to aid his campaign to retake the White House… The oil industry has a long list of policy actions it would want Trump to take, including dismantling parts of President Joe Biden’s green agenda and rolling back pollution regulations that threaten to crimp their profits.

        Yeah, he’s going after the establishment… Lmfao

      I need you to show some examples please. For all I know, Trump is The Swamp incarnate. Gave his family and friends high positions in the government, spent millions of tax payer money for trips to places owned by him so he directly profited from every trip. He and his family took donations (and likely bribes) from the rich and poweful both in and outside the US and his policies are super good for the rich and bad for the poor. How anyone can think he’s “anti-establishment” is beyond me. The establishment is paying him to do what he does.

      Probably cause it never even came close to happening? Gullible rubes like you wanted it to happen really bad and then imagined it when it didn’t.
