About McCain and Romney we will never know, but the American presidency and government in Republican hands are hamster cages for pets of the uber-rich. Victorious politicians are constrained from responsible action or otherwise coddled into compliance. The real ”deep state” is entirely in Republican hands, a vertically integrated operation designed to thwart, pervert, undermine and overthrow our democracy. American grit, determination and ingenuity are applied to subversion.
Trump even looks like a hamster and, more obviously than Bush but it’s clearer in Bush’s actions now in retrospect, all he can do is run around in an totally circumscribed way. He, too, would be punished if he strayed but he has been a good boy, probably surprising his masters and managers. He has relied on that infrastructure of doom, the Federalist Society and Heritage and Cato and all the rest down to obscure media enterprises executing disinformation and indoctrination protocols.
The “Justice” Department—this is a big deal—is in the hands of a hamster though he looks like a sick one. Perhaps he was poisoned before he was appointed. They can’t and won’t act outside their incredibly defined roles as wholly-owned subsidiaries of the billionaires and tycoons. The Supreme Court and Justice Department have fallen. Congress is compromised. These are dark days.
