PB, there is no hope for you to figure out what you're doing, saying or which side you're actually supporting at this point. Like him or not, Donald Trump represents the values of traditional American culture and the core principles that the United States of America was founded on and you and others are on the plutocratic side that wants the power to dismantle and establish themselves as rulers. You're not thinking clearly because if you were you'd understand that we have an American President, an American government, an American army, an American economy and an American Constitution that we will be defending as we are waging war with what's referred to as the Democratic party and the plutocracy that it represents today. So, get ready and be prepared to accept the consequences for being an imbecile.

There is no hope for you if don’t figure out what you’re doing.  Soldiers of the American Army have had a bounty put on their heads, and Trump hasn’t seen fit to do anything.  The allies which we worked with so long have been alienated.  The American Constitution is built on a system of checks and balances, which Trump has decided to attack and get around.  Trump has made a shambles of the American economy.  You cannot open up without bringing the virus down which he has declined to do.  The American Government which is supposed to serve the people serves Trump.  He calls it the deep state, and prevents functions like the CDC, the intelligence community or the post office from working.  Functions like border control, defending government buildings or guarding prisons are raided to inflame the violence in cities that are supposed to be controlled by Trump’s democratically elected opposition.

I must admit he is for the American president, at least when that president is himself.

Thus, a good number of people with traditional American values oppose Trump vehemently.  They will try to defend what is good in America quite intensely.  As much as you claim to defend America and it’s values, those Americans who live on Earth One, who value truth, who don’t live in the Fox bubble, are as intensely defending all that is American just as intensely as you claim.

At bottom, that may be the biggest thing that we carry out of this crisis.  We cannot let the super rich create a fantasy for their own benefit.  We have to value truth and science, and let those principles guide our politics.  Enough of lies.  The real difference at the moment is not so much that the elites lie at the expense of the working man, but that so many are willing to believe the lies.
