The political world is changing rapidly. what the establishment has learned, what the democratic establishment, the republican establishment, the media establishment, is the world is not quite what they thought it was. with the middle class disappearing, with people working longer hours for lower rages, with people worried about the future of their children, what you are seeing is a lot of discontent at the grassroots level all over this country. and that's what's going on right now.

Donald trump said: i, donald trump, yes, i am going to take on the entire establishment. i'm going to take on the political establishment. i am going to take on the economic establishment. i'm going to take on the media establishment. and i think a lot of people responded positively to that message.

The birth of excellence begins with our awareness that our beliefs are a choice. we usually don't think of it that way, but belief can be a conscious choice. you can choose beliefs that limit you, or you can choose beliefs that support you. the trick is to choose the beliefs that are conducive to success and the results you want and to discard the ones that hold you back.

If we, who live outside asylums, act as if we lived in a fictitious world- that is to say, if we are consistent with our beliefs- we cannot adjust ourselves to actual conditions, and so fall into many avoidable semantic difficulties. but the so-called normal person practically never abides by his beliefs, and when his beliefs are building for him a fictitious world, he saves his neck by not abiding by them. a so-called "insane" person acts upon his beliefs, and so cannot adjust himself to a world which is quite different from his fancy.

Relationship is action, is it not? action has meaning only in relationship; without understanding relationship, action on any level will only breed conflict. the understanding of relationship is infinitely more important than the search for any plan of action. the ideology, the pattern for action, prevents action. action based on ideology hinders the understanding of relationship between man and man.
Understanding Levels Action
When it comes to controlling human beings there is no better instrument than lies. because, you see, humans live by beliefs. and beliefs can be manipulated. the power to manipulate beliefs is the only thing that counts ... who knows what use they’ll make of you? maybe you’ll help them to persuade people to buy things they don’t need, or hate things they know nothing about, or hold beliefs that make them easy to handle, or doubt the truths that might save them.

My new year’s eve toast: to all the devils, lusts, passions, greeds, envies, loves, hates, strange desires, enemies ghostly and real, the army of memories, with which i do battle — may they never give me peace. (new year's eve, 1947)
New Year Memories Hate
We americans claim to be a peace-loving people. we hate bloodshed; we are opposed to violence. yet we go into spasms of joy over the possibility of projecting dynamite bombs from flying machines upon helpless citizens. we are ready to hang, electrocute, or lynch anyone, who, from economic necessity, will risk his own life in the attempt upon that of some industrial magnate. yet our hearts swell with pride at the thought that america is becoming the most powerful nation on earth, and that she will eventually plant her iron foot on the necks of all other nations. such is the logic of patriotism.
