1. The Grey Champion can be evil. Stalin? Trotsky? Antonescu? If President Trump transforms (with the aid of a compliant Congress which serves lobbyists instead of constituents)... Good Lord!

Two problems with this. The first is the assumption that a GC must be "good". S&H labled Hitler as the GC last time round for Germany. I don't think very many people would call him "good" unless they are National Socialists. The second is that Trump is "evil". I've seen very little evil from him. Unpleasant? Maybe. Rude? Certainly. Evil? Not so much. Of the two candidates only one was evil, and SHE lost.

Quote:2. Donald Trump transmutes into a reasonable, decent, humane fellow.

I think that Donald Trump is a reasonable, decent, and humane fellow already. Any and all mentions of him being a ray-cis, or a sexist or a xenophobe or whatever started with his bid for the White House. Prior to that he was just a run of the mill billionaire.
It really is all mathematics.

Turn on to Daddy, Tune in to Nationalism, Drop out of UN/NATO/WTO/TPP/NAFTA/CAFTA Globalism.
