Although I have always seen "America" as a social frontier with actual opportunity for the poor, the dispossessed, the downtrodden and the political refugees from counties already ossified with Establishment Power, and love the hope of a Constitutional Republic built on federalism..... the splitting or sharing of power geographically towards the nearest possible governance, with lots of checks and balances against any concentration of power at any level...….
I just want you to know your opinion here is dead right.
The reality we have now is "The Club" as perhaps generally cultivated by the Council on Foreign Relations, which invites new members and provides indoctrinating speakers to monthly meetings, provides a leading magazine I subscribe to and read, and opportunities for social and business networking. And a sort of code of behavior. Non-attribution. You're not supposed to carry gossip about others in the club. Someone grossly violated that code when they took a video, by phone most likely, of Joe Biden bragging about how he school Ukraine into submiission, and let it loose publicly. I bet that person lost his membership, for life.
The CFR is a sort of glue that makes Establishment Dems and Republicans a sort of UniParty.
Trump even went to the national CFR chief and sought support for his candidacy. But with a radical departure from the general globalism of the day like MAGA, he drew fire instead.
I share the concern expressed above in several posts about Trump also exceeding his Constitutional authority, as he has done in signing some unconstitutional legislation and in trade dealing and the PanPanic measures.
