    There’s probably going to be some reversal in such a scenario but I think this time it goes deeper than that. People see it’s not just the clowns in the White House, it’s also all major American corporations and their owners. Those won’t change with the coming of Obama v2, and they’re not about to start exracting less from us. Meanwhile China’s gonna keep taking more and more mindshare by delivering more and more high and low tech products in people’s lives. I think a significant reversal that puts the US above China would only occur under an FDR-like figure that curbstomps the whole US oligarchy.

      You are not wrong. The change must totally reject and punish the destructive greed and the exploitation of the non-rich by the Epstein class.
