How America Made Donald Trump Unstoppable
-Rolling Stone Magazine
A thousand ridiculous accidents needed to happen in the unlikeliest of sequences for it to be possible, but absent a dramatic turn of events – an early primary catastrophe, Mike Bloomberg ego-crashing the race, etc. – this boorish, monosyllabic TV tyrant with the attention span of an Xbox-playing 11-year-old really is set to lay waste to the most impenetrable oligarchy the Western world ever devised.
It turns out we let our electoral process devolve into something so fake and dysfunctional that any half-bright con man with the stones to try it could walk right through the front door and tear it to shreds on the first go.
And Trump is no half-bright con man, either. He's way better than average.
It should not surprise anyone when today's capitalists try to weaken the middle class because if weakened enough they are no longer the majority.
When the middle class is NOT the majority then the POOR class becomes the majority.
That is dangerous because if the POOR become the majority then the economy is BOUND BY nothing more exotic than simple ARITHMETIC to go either in the direction of FASCISM OR COMMUNISM.
There is no getting around this because regular capitalism backed by democracy is NO LONGER SUSTAINABLE under an oligarchy, because the poor no longer possess enough capital to keep it sustainable.
Ergo Trump can only be pointing us in either the direction of communism or fascism. It can almost be proven with a mathematical formula if the right economists wish to fire up their computatin and cipherin muh-sheens.
