It becomes less strange when you constantly ask “who benefits financially” because that is the prime mover here. Beyond that, there is little to consider given current evidence increasingly points to lack of meaningful representation regardless of vote.



I agree with all this except “in case…”.
Our allies know that authoritarians that get voted in, most of the time don’t get voted out. I’m confident they’re worried about when, not if.
I’m convinced that those in power put trump in the whitehouse so that they could basically pull a private equity buy-and-bankrupt on the entire country
