We did warn y'all
Plutocracy gets what it wants.
Months before our last presidential election, I wrote that:
2016 will probably become another lesson in the application of American Oligarchy’s anti-democratic power.
And so . . .
Within weeks of gaining the presidency, Donald Trump has reversed himself on China, Russia, NATO, Syria and unnecessary warmongering.
President Trump is now acting like every recent predecessor. Meaning like a tongue-drooling advocate for the Military Industrial Complex.
The moral? — Gobbled whole by the War Machine
How sweet (for the few) it is.
