Regardless of what POTUS says, it’s what he’s doing that counts.

Trump followers want to make America great again. No one seems to know what the Republican Party wants. But the goals of the Democratic Party are clear. The defining position of today’s left, now more than ever, is one of dissatisfaction and dissidence. Socioeconomic classes and inequalities are resultant of the oppressed being subjugated by the oppressors in an unjustly evolved social system based in racism, xenophobia, misogyny, and capitalistic greed. There is little or nothing in current American society that warrants perpetuation. The Democrats want to remake American society into a system they alone control.

These are fulfilling times for the Left, which thrives on stirring up discontent, thus creating an opportunity to display its moral certitude and superiority in defense of the “oppressed“ while weaponizing the forces of the administrative state to wreak revenge upon the “oppressors,” whom they strive to replace.
