    Don’t forget about big money. The Democrats, Republicans, Harris, and Trump all avoided pointing the finger at what’s to blame, it’s big money in politics. Trump and the Republicans have openly accepted all the money from the big donors and the power that gets them. Elon Musk was a huge part of his campaign while they blame immigrants. The Republicans know how to work a broken system, just get more money.

    Meanwhile the Democrats and Harris have to thread the needle of accepting big money too but not showing it. They can’t outright say it’s the billionaires that are screwing you, so they say Trump is, and that he’s a fascist. All true but Trump’s second presidency isn’t the cause of America’s facist decline, he’s a co-morbidity of it. Then they are shocked when the system they refuse to fix is broken.
