Is the USA Under Propaganda Attack?

I'm pretty baffled by the "left" team, especially by people like the Clintons and the apparatchiks at the blue party. They seem out of touch to the extreme, so much so that one fairly plausible explanation is they're playing a scripted part. Similarly Donald Trump is an actor playing the boffo clown dancing bear, or some version of Hamlet--who's literally the subject of the book Hamlet's Mill. I often wonder if it's all a play and a propaganda war on the US of A.

However, I think there are much simpler explanations than that. Clinton and the blue squad are super out of touch and live in a little patronage bubble in New York. For several years that patronage bubble effectively extended across the United States by way of the media, but it doesn't anymore. Corporate socialism and it's associated propaganda via corporations like Nike or ESPN or late night TV personalities looks like a big fail. It's the "They Live" ending in real life.

When corporate socialist minions like Clinton or Eric Holder advocate for violence or "intolerance", it's probably a dumb calculation to fire up their base, even though it probably has the opposite effect. I think they completely misintrpret Trump and the 2016 election and they're keep on doing it! It's amazing to see them turn into lilliputian hoardes.

I think Trump's persona is the result of a lifetime of cultivating a media role and it was like camoflauge during the election. What's left of the mainstream media audience is the reality TV idiocracy citizen. Trump's boffo act plays to them. Meanwhile his campaign tapped into the niches and tribes where all the other people in the US actually spend their time.

Is this period of US history particularly "divisive" and is there a cold civil war (no lol)? The issue of slavery hung over the united states for nearly a century before the Civil War broke out, and the meta-issue of economic relations with british oligarchs (slave plantations provided cheap raw material for textile mills) is something that plagued the United States almost from day one. Compared to the issue of slavery globalism is a non-issue.

Corporate socialism/globalism is physically feeble in the extreme. "Corporate" interests are really the interests of a handful of people--a few thousand maybe--rather than an expression of some first principle economic rules. The phony wedge issues of campaigns are all a smoke screen to keep the general public from getting a clue.
