This moment is historic because it breaks decades of bipartisan silence. Establishment politics hid behind free-market language while allowing monopolistic investors to hollow out communities. Trump shattered that consensus with one directive. America is not an asset class. Neighborhoods are not portfolios. Land is not meant to be strip-mined by financial algorithms.
The implications go beyond housing. This is a cultural and civilizational line being drawn. Who owns America’s soil matters. Whether families or faceless entities control neighborhoods determines the future of the nation itself. Trump framed it clearly: sovereignty begins at the front door.
