Interesting and insightful, but also clueless in parts.
Trumpism, even as Trump’s personal influence fades, will persist as a movement that channels the existential fears of a civilization in freefall, longing for a return to integrity and self-expression. The power of the archetype lies in its resonance with a people alienated by the deep state – Trump articulates their despair, even as his achievements remain modest. His role is to act as the last expression of Western vitality, not to reverse the downward spiral but to embody the final brave spirit of a people grasping for survival in a world disintegrating into frenzied insanity. Spengler leaves no room for optimism about the material success of such figures, yet the archetype persists, drawing its strength from the same impulses that herald the end of the West’s historical cycle.
The biggest element in what makes Trump who he is, has been the power of the REEEEEEEEEEEEEaction against him. And he plays them like a master angler plays a fish.
He may have "articulated despair" of the "people grasping for survival" etc., but what really gives him momentum is that the haters just can't stop talking about him.
His ability to draw, and endure, the fire of his legions of enemies, is what makes him the incredible leader and figure he is.
It doesn't say what archetype the writer thinks he is, he is the superhero archetype. The oldest one there is. Hercules, Thoth, Bellerohon, Beowulf, and now we have Batman.
Mythology is far more relevant than people realize. If anything it's the actual basis of our experience as human beings. What's a cup without the idea of the cup? What is a human being without the ideas and associations we have about ourselves? A lot of the time it's not even conscious, but it's really important.
I was watching "The Penguin" series and there was a reporter talking about injuries more consistent with strangulation in relation to these alleged suicides. Couldn't help but think of Epstein's situation. Then there's a girl in the show who gets framed by her father for having a hunch that he actually murdered those women. She ends up taking blame for her whole family. This wasn't exactly related but I thought of Ghislane Maxwell and the fact that we haven't seen any coconspirators arrested.
I believe it’s a far more simple answer as to why we have some strange myths from the Greeks and romans, the nephilim. I also believe this is why the us government and HRC in particular is hyper focused on giants and relics. There were a few strange emails about this from HRC and the state department from the Obama era.

You guys ever seen those video compilations of gematria related trump ‘programming’ via Hollywood movies and media dating back through decades?

They made him who he is.
DJT is not a myth!

I was lol-ing at the academic German attempt at philosophy.
Some commenters on RT were demanding an English translation from academic German.
