The best way to hurt the US is to remove the flow of cash into corporate hands.

Not just ANY corporate hands, this is the US military industrial complex we're talking about. They're not going to be happy lmao

If stuff like this doesn't elicit some kind of response from those "deep state" folks I keep hearing about then I think it's safe to say they don't exist. What would they be hiding that power and influence for if not to protect their interests from an idiot like Trump ruining the game for them?

What if Trump is their idiot?
