The Plutocrats and The People: An Unlikely (Temporary) Alliance
Could it be that the 1% and the 99% are getting together?
No. That isn’t happening. That could never happen. But, they are currently battling, and together will defeat, the same enemy: the fascist regime of Donald Trump.
We The People oppose Donald Trump because he’s a violent fascist, a dictator, and because he’s unspeakably cruel and dangerous. The Plutocrats oppose him because, although he just gave them zillions of dollars and free rein to exploit without limit from the Big Beautiful Bill, he’s no longer useful to them.
The Plutocrats love the obliteration of regulations, the huge gifts in the budget care of the taxpayers (not the taxEVADERS like themselves)…but well, they HATE the tariffs and don’t need Trump anymore. Plus, the Epstein files provide a relatively easy tool to get rid of him.
Besides, the Plutocrats have “friends” in the Democratic Party — they’ve been playing both sides for decades. The Plutocrats see a return to unfettered power with a different set of frontmen.
They will get rid of Trump (with help from The People.) But they won’t take power, except nominally. Democrats will win. But We The People will rein in both and, if necessary, remove them from the stage. The old era is REALLY over.
