I think Trump may not be a puppet, but an actual genuine player in the game. He financed his own campaign, and seems to actually want to improve the US's situation domestically, as well as internationally. It seems clear to me he is having a positive, anti-Globalist influence. The absolute shitstorm he has incurred from the controlled corporate media is just one piece of evidence that he is not simply another shill.
He has encouraged growth in the US economy, is creating jobs, is getting tough on illegal migration and is even putting China in its place. He has even been publicly critical of the Federal Reserve. A little credit where due would not be inappropriate.

I certainly don't disagree on some of those points. What I don't like is the increased war efforts that go unchecked despite his campaign trail rhetoric of not getting into more conflicts. Perhaps he was given some control over the economy but in exchange the other powers get absolute control over the war machine. I do admit that he is a fresh perspective than Obama was. I have mixed feelings about him but I still think he is controlled as any president was and is, but the extent of his being controlled is up for debate.
His economic and business views and strengths are important and have had a positive impact. I find it to be more of a mixed bag than the previous presidents were.
Which increased war efforts?
What other powers are you talking about?
I don't see any strings being pulled. Who is he working for. If you are so sure, you must have specifics to present.
I guess you missed this when you talk about Trump being genuine.
P.S. Don't want to get into a debate, just thought I'd share this in case you missed it.
I saw this episode, and think that just because Trump aligns himself politically with people that I do not like or support: does not make him a political non-entity like some want to make him out to be. He is hiring political players with connections, not nobodies with flawless records who may plot more reasonable policies, but don't have the heft to get anything done. The fact that he made Rick Perry head of the Department for Energy after he called to do away with the department is an elaborate joke, but has worked out well.
Why don't you want to get into a debate? I thought that's what this site was for. Are you just going to post a criticism and a video at me, and then act like you don't want to get into a disagreement? lol
No, I posted a video that reflects my own view point and that MAYBE you could have not seen. Now that you say you've seen it, you remain with the same opinion and I remain with my own opinion. I don't want to debate because in the same way you won't change your opinion, I will not change mine. Simple right?
Other than that, I have nothing against you or your opinions and not wanting to get into a debate is a perfectly normal position to take, especially on online platforms, perhaps face-to-face we could have a nice conversation.
Final note, Steemit exists to share things, you want to make the comment section into a forum? Perhaps a forum site is better suited for those in-depth discussions. I don't "want to get into a disagreement", we are already in disagreement, I just read your past posts, read your opinion and now wanted to share mine, that is all.
By forces that want it to be perpetually at war yes. Average people like myself and billions others in the world don’t have a need for conflict but the military industrial complex wants perpetual war so it creates those opportunities to sell it. Hopefully that’s not something you don’t think is a reality.
Follow my channel. You might like what I have to say. I update it regularly, and just posted my first podcast interview (with The Iconoclast from Youtube).
But, be warned: we are a little more hardline than James is on a number of touchy issues.
