There have been times when parties have picked leaders / candidates on the basis that they are not meant to win.
If there's a big collapse that's just about to happen, the inner circle of a party don't want it to happen on their party's watch, they'd rather the other lot got the blame for it,
then they can scold the population for having been so stupid in their choice and offer themselves as the wise saviours - if only the plebs had had the foresight to pick wiser leaders
The Rothschild merchant bankers used to joke about leaving the last 10% of an investment bubble for the suckers - and they managed to appear as though they had some sort of super power to foresee such a thing coming and cash their investments before the crash came. I now know how they do it - they're in on the decision to raise the interest rates on central bank lending, which is usually what pops the bubble.
Some, or perhaps even most politicians do not understand business cycle theory, and might do stupid things, for example;
Japanese Prime Minister, ShinzoAbe and the head of the Japanese central bank Haruhiku Kuroda have just had a meeting with Ben Bernanke, about beginning the final desperate stage of Keynesian economics which is euphemistically likened to dropping newly printed paper money out of helicopters so people can grab it and go out and spend it
followers of the school of economics which I like, are waiting for the hyper inflation to kick off in Japan. Japanese people might be great savers of money, but twice in the twentieth century, the equally prudent and conservative German population said "scheiß drauf" and repudiated their paper money, rather than hold onto paper that was always loosing its purchasing power.
There are people who do understand full well - as the Rothschilds seem to have understood, and I would be surprised if the people who do understand had not told one or two of their pals in the back rooms where the real decisions get made. Whether those people listen or not - well, who knows?
There's a big bust on its way. Perhaps it has begun already, or perhaps it's still a year or eighteen months away, the first signs are here now, the collapse and bailouts of European banks, Japan considering helicopter money, Yelland still not daring to raise interest rates, sub prime mortgages are back...
When the bust comes, It will be between three and ten times worse than 2008 (that's how many times bigger central bank balance sheets are)
perhaps Trump's job is to lose the election for the stupid party so it happens to Hillary?
or perhaps to win, and for it to happen when he's in the oval office?
then the public can be scolded for having been so stupid, if only they'd picked an status quo establishment candidate like they were supposed to, the terrible calamity would never have happened - wouldn't it be so much better if the decision of who to have as wise leader were taken out of the hands of the stupid public and left to people who have the brains to choose correctly...
