With all due respect, read the whole article.

It really has nothing to do with Trump, or even politics.

It’s something else, and it is so massive and unattributable to a single cause.

It’s the best I’ve seen in terms of capturing what’s going on.

"Extreme capitalism has blown apart American society so totally that people cannot even care for one another as much as they do in places like Pakistan and Nigeria."

I'm going to call BS right here.

This self proclaimed "vampire" is demented.

I respectfully disagree. There is one root cause that the author has missed entirely: the driving of God from our public square.

When we abandoned God, we abandoned the Christian world view that this world is the place of testing, not happiness. So much of the hopelessness and despair we suffer from today is due to the embracing of empty promises (materialism and hedonism) that cannot provide true meaning or purpose.

And when abandoned God, we abandoned His true system of morality and restraint, the check that keeps fallen Man from spinning out of control.

Every horrible thing that is happening can be traced to the catastrophically wrong decision we have made when in our wealth and pride we decided that God is no longer necessary.
