''whilst it's simple enough - it takes a slog to set it up - first, you have to convince your own numpties to go with nation building -
A difficult reality to ovecome?''
hmmmm- IMO, it SHOULD be less difficult now than before Trump.
Trump showed us with crystal clarity - that there is a big big big gap in America and it's chock full of harvestable political power
so - that's merely information. How it is used is up to people. But, I see two possibilities that are now available as options
1. Copy Trump ------ pretty easy to do. The question would be - why would one want to, what does one want that they could use that tool to their advantage - the tool being, to rile up the angry, to get them to think that because you appear angry too and you promise them that they will be better off - that they will rise and follow you.
2. Target the same groups in the gap - but, do it in an opposite way to Trump - ACTUALLY LOOK AFTER THEM -
house them, feed them, educate them, get industries going that will employ those who do get educated.
In short - harvest that big group of disaffected - for their benefit, for the benefit of your nation AND gain political power for yourself - a power that may well be quite lasting.
I believe it is possible to have a successful option 2 ------------ IF there was political and business will - and I believe it is possible that the political and business will could be influenced if the right person spun the idea and sold the concept that it would be good for ALL - particularly profit.
tis the same situation in Oz - the haves and have nots.
there's a lot of power available to be harnessed in the have nots - the choice is either to harvest or not harvest AND how to harvest.
