Some of us see a different story without too much politics
1/ All politicians are a breed unto themselves and they need certain characteristic to do the job
2/ As can be seen, the last mob were raping and pillaging the country, the wealth and the people to feather their own nests
3/ Something had to change, even the southern boarder had to change
4/ The USA were not able to pay what they owe without dramatic change
So politics aside IMHO if Trump had not won and turned the dogs lose I would have thought that the USA had at the most about six years before the dark ages of total chaos took over and the USA in it's present state disappeared
