If you don't bulldoze, you end up being made a poodle by the deep state. It's either Trump or the deep state who will eventually triumph.
The deep state includes the CIA who are brazen, the military industrial complex who anyhow charge the US whatever it likes for weapons as no competition, the donor class such as AIPAC which turned US as a puppet state of Israel, the wall Street banks, .......
That's a lot of enemies for Trump to battle.
