Why will most billionaires not control Trump?

It is now completely obvious that the main thrust of the powerful money that has been used to keep Trump in power will not change because they share the same goal.

Ever since the passage in 2010 of Citizens United, when unlimited financial money could be used to back political candidates, the power of governance has shifted to the super-rich.

With Trump seeking authoritarian control over our government, it is obvious that his main allies are the people who seek the same thing since none of them believes in democracy, despite their protestations to the contrary.

With the country politically divided, it is evident that the midterm election will be vital in seeing if democracy can win out over this clear drive to destroy it.

Of course, the efforts by Trump and his allies to gerrymander its way to more representatives in the US House of Representatives have seemed to be succeeding with the help of the Supreme Court, which obviously is an addicted co-conspirator in giving the anti-democracy forces in this country every assistance in meeting their goals.

Now, the horrible sequence of events that has allowed Trump full options has put us into another ugly war, and despite the success of the Ukrainian government in holding off Putin, we see Trump ignoring or undermining NATO, which is our main democratic ally.

Trump began his train of destruction by attacking USA ID, which is now closing to the detriment of Meagan’s around the world, which we had been helping at minimal expense compared to the budget. He should have been jailed after January 6, 2021.

It just couldn’t seem to get any worse than it is right now as we plough our way into the destruction of our democracy.
