I have two main issues:

1. The military-industrial complex Eisenhower warned us about in 1961, and, related to that,
2. The Big Bank crime wave and associated kleptocracy...

plus all the politicians, institutions, think tanks, economists, media fanboys etc. who support #1 & #2.
Trump is a symptom, not a cause, of where we are today. I've been trying to suggest the real causes here on the Twitter for 5 years.
Opposing endless offensive, undeclared wars, and the massive organized transfer of wealth upwards over the past decades to government-created plutocrats does not mean I'm a communist, or a fascist, as has been suggested.
I'm just here for the free-market capitalism and democracy.
I'm bipartisan. I loathe both parties. http://www.epsilontheory.com/things-fall-apart-pt-1/
Why are we seriously thinking of starting another offensive mideast war? If Trump's so dangerous why did Congress just give him billions more for bombs and enhance his surveillance powers? Why are Ben Bernanke & Larry Summers still interviewed and not mocked? Stop this nonsense.
Why did people take a chance on Trump?

Diverse voices on the left @ChrisLynnHedges and @MaxBlumenthal , and on the right @RonPaul, have been right for decades about our warmongering neocons. Meanwhile, the MSM continues to trust @AmbJohnBolton. @realDonaldTrump
"...misguided interventions by the national security apparatus have resulted in hundreds of thousands of deaths, over 5 million refugees fleeing to Europe, destruction of entire cities, the squandering of some $5 trillion of US taxpayer money, rampant corruption & criminality."
"The mandarins of national security, rather than blunt the rise of radical jihadism, have ensured its spread across the globe." @AmbJohnBolton @SecPompeo @realDonaldTrump
"The radical jihadists...are often deliberately armed and empowered by the U.S. national security apparatus..." https://www.truthdig.com/articles/reckoning-with-failure-in-the-war-on-terror/
"the Democratic Party elite eagerly rehabilitated the Bush-era neoconservatives, welcoming PNAC [Project for the New American Century] founder William Kristol and ‘axis of evil’ author David Frum into the ranks of the so-called ‘resistance’" - @MaxBlumenthal
