Bold to assume he would build something for the benefit of the peasant class. Or create something where he cannot profit from financialy.

Trump could propose universal healthcare & many on the left would suddenly hate the idea of everyone having healthcare.

you're getting loads of downvotes, but I honestly think it's mostly from people who feel called-out on some level that we all, as a society, have long abandoned wanting better outcomes and just want emotional validation.

This is the trick that Russia and other entities amplified in our social media spaces and forums, the raw emotions and anger that leaves people making choices based on feelings rather than solid understanding of politics.

I mean, it's too late now, it all worked and got people so distracted that we let the coyote in to guard the henhouse. But I mean, ideally yah we would need to put some better effort into separating how we feel from what we really want. That ship has sailed a long time ago, leftists are as delusional as the right now, but in a different direction. RIP democracy.

Not me. I don’t have blind allegiance to any team.

No, but most of us would be sceptical of how he'll implement it, if it ever comes to pass at all... He's announced a number of things I've actually agreed with and I can't think of a single time he's not found some way to fuck it up

He did say it, at least once. I know he didn't mean it, but still.

I'm all in favor of this, though he'll find some way to fuck it up, if it happens at all and isn't just a way to siphon money out of the government for his buddies

I half remember something like that happening in Brazil. The right proposes something the left approves, there's no fight, they realize their mistake and start opposing their own idea.
