Donald Trump has done this country a huge favor.  We owe him a debt of gratitude because, in just four years – love him or hate him – he has exposed every single weakness within our government and brought to the surface the deep fault lines that have destabilized this nation for decades.

Before him, it was like this slow drip, drip, drip.  We could feel in our hearts that things were off, but had a hard time identifying exactly what those things were.  Most of us assumed a day of reckoning was coming eventually, and it most certainly was. Donald Trump just accelerated the process.

Some of the things mentioned in this podcast are subjective and, therefore, leave room for opinion. For example, topics like the size our government should be and the role it should play, or whether we should or shouldn’t have withdrawn from major international agreements.

On the other hand, many of the things mentioned are objective.  We actually have the data necessary to assess things like Donald Trump’s trade wars and tax cuts. We actually have provable outcomes and can clearly track the relationship between cause and effect. After all, numbers don’t lie.

We now know.
