Hi! Is this thing on?

Do you like it, rothschild?

Back when America actually had a degree of greatness, before cultural degradation set in and we were overtaken by consumerism.

Trump is a byproduct of consumerism, his conception of "greatness", purely materialistic.

Materialism is poisonous to the soul. It destroys everything because it has no appreciation for anything that can't be bought, sold, or traded. To a materialist, art is a commodity. Something to possess, rather than appreciate. Can there be happiness without appreciation? People obssessed with the accumulation of wealth and power have no time for such questions. In their madness they believe that having more will fill the void in their hearts, which have long since withered and died. It can't.
