Im listening to the book Power vs Force and it really puts a lot of Trump's actions into perspective.

The book gets a little out there in some respects but in summary power always beats force because it comes from a place of higher conciousness whereas force is a lower level set of characteristics that evolves from grief/anger/regulation, etc. It does not stand on its own so eventually it loses to positions of power.

It is actually a fascinating read so far but what I have been thinking about is that if Trump had done what many of us feel he should have (lock everyone up and crack down with righteous vengeance on all DS) then this revolution against the political elites worldwide would lose the moral high ground and be characterized as violent and evil just like a militaristic regime. Think Ghandi bringing down England with peace vs a jackobin or soviet style revolution. By using the approach Trump is using he requires zero force because he inherently has the upper hand against arrogant elites who have zero consent from the governed and who are only their through propping themselves up, lying, cheating, stealing, etc..

Trump never has to do anything because the entire worlds illegitimate leaders are exposing themselves on a grand scale never before seen. If Trump has retaliated with an eye for an eye immediately he would never be able to approach any of this situation as he has and likely the only path to freedom would be war.

Just my thoughts so far. Obviously i am impatient and want justice but we have to think in terms of the big picture.
