What evidence is there that he's trying to save this country from bankruptcy? His adding of nearly $8 trillion to the national debt during his first term? His continued refusal to reform entitlements (the major driver of our debt)? His dismantling of our trade system into a centralized planning model (talk about socialism)? His needless depleting of people's retirement investments?

Whenever I hear someone argue that Trump, the self-professed King of Debt and anti-free-trader, is trying to save us from bankruptcy or socialism, I'm reminded of a cheesy 1990s sci-fi movie called "I Come in Peace" (with Dolph Lundgren), in which an alien villain keeps saying "I Come in Peace" just before killing a room full people.
