I have been saying this for years now that a 'permanent unelected machine that runs the government.' How do I know? That's easy. When polling Americans what policies that resonate with them and they support by an 80 to 90% margin, you would think the party they belong to would go to the fucking mat to legislate those policies and ensure that constituency would keep them driving the bus for eternity. Have they? Nah, just a crumb or two, here and there for the 'peasants' just to appease them so they don't behead them and put their heads on a pike. I think the hoi polloi now see that they have been played and are genuinely pissed. If the current trajectory persists, I could not rule out the real possibility of widespread violence in the US spinning out of control.
