    The US 1% finally went mask off and don’t care what the general public thinks of them now. Trump was the permission structure that allowed it.

      Uh, wait for autonomous crowd control before it gets really mask off. Then those people fighting in cages will not do it voluntarily anymore and certainly not getting paid.

      Trump was elected because of the permission structure.

      No functioning republic would allow him past the primary. This is one of the unintended (joke) side effects of Citizens United and Super PACs, it just took a few years and billionaires are sharing the stage with Presidential victors, laughing. There’s a huge amount of money behind him, and he got more “free” press than anybody ever.
