In this interview David Sirota makes plenty of sense about the failures of the elite class that led to the Trump victory.
Toward the end Krystal asked a question that seemed marginal to me. After she answered it, I can see that it’s pretty much the whole story.
Why were the Repooflicans OPEN to takeover by the Trump cult in 2016, while the Dems ferociously BLOCKED the Bernie movement? The answer is simple if you pay attention to reality.
Trump is Wall Street. The billionaires knew him, and knew he would enrich them while ruining the peasants. That’s what he did. He enriched Wall Street beyond its wildest dreams, and literally STRANGLED AND IMPRISONED ALL PEASANTS. No leader in history ever did that before.
Bernie is genuinely opposed to Wall Street. Though he turned out to be weak, his impulses are solidly with FDR. The billionaires who fund the Democrats knew that he was serious, so the party cheated him out of primary wins and tore him down in the media.
At the start of this year’s campaign I noticed that Trump is no longer pretending to be a populist. He is openly embracing the stock criminals and bitcoin criminals, and they are deliriously happy with his victory. Stock values are rising fast, bitcoin is rising fast. The bitcoin criminals are doubling their “net worth” in a day.
