That is incredibly sarcastic and cynical and also 100% correct.

@gammagongetya8967 They said Trump preached faith. Nobody said he practiced it.

There's another part of this discussion that needs discussing and that's the degrading of institutions BY EXPERTS. At the start Sam said Bret went to the University of Chicago or as I like to call it the Grand Temple of Narcissistic Arrogance. That place was in part founded by John D. Rockefeller himself the man who made his entire career about how useless government was and that the general population needed a strong hand like his to guide it. Out of UC came McKinsey the worlds largest and most influential consultancy and Chicago School economics which has done nothing for 90% of the developed world and been fantastic for the type of narcissist that Rockefeller was the model for. I'm Australian and right now we are trying to find out how to deal with the utter SHlTFUCKERY of the consulting industry. The big 4 as they are referred to here (EY, KPMG, Deloitte and PwC) have all been involved in a series of scandals that have undermined our nation. We haven't yet got to discussing McKinsey and Boston Group. That major problem we now have is EXACTLY what British-Italian economist Mariana Mazucatto has been saying. She's quoted a British MP who decried the fact that the British government had become infantilized by the consulting industry. This is a backlash America needs to be ready to face. All these consultancies that are screwing up Western governments (McKinsey, Boston Group, EY, KPMG, Deloitte and PwC) they are all AMERICAN.

@gammagongetya8967 And again as has been said many many times - preaching isn't the same as practicing.
