Is Donald Trump Authentic?

There's this possibly fake quote by Bannon which reads

"I’m a Leninist. Lenin wanted to destroy the state, and that’s my goal too. I want to bring everything crashing down, and destroy all of today’s establishmen."

I just looked up Leninism, and on Wikipedia it states

"Leninism is the political theory for the organisation of a revolutionary vanguard party and the achievement of a dictatorship of the proletariat as political prelude to the establishment of socialism."

But if Trump ends up being replaced by a socialist democratic then wow.

The article was much better than I was expecting. I agree there is authenticity in Trump, in that he is so corrupt, so devoid of normative values or decency, he kind of inadvertanly he can't help but expose a lot of political corruption of ugliness. For instance, take the locking of up if immigrants. Obama did that and nobody paid attention, bit through Trumps anti immigrant rhetoric now everybody is aware of it, and something may be done. Or the media. Thanks to Trump, I've become more aware of vigilant of media bias or selective reporting editorializing (with possibly the negative consequence of being less trustful overall of out news outlets to some degree).

Whether this unsure period pays off or leads to a decline remains to be seen (I tend to agree with the atomic scientist who keep moving the Doomsday Clock closing to midnight in response to Trump).
