Yes, definitely. Ron Paul tried to raise that fundamental sound money issue. It was sickening to see how the media ignored him during the debates for the nomination. Unfortunately he did not have the kind of vital force needed to bull his way into being heard. Trump later demonstrated how to do that. He performed a great service exposing the fake news problem, at least. Just that was a great accomplishment, imho. After that he went down under a pack of hyenas, and finally, I think, took a dive “voluntarily.” His stance on “vaccines” made no sense at all.
