There is widespread, bipartisan dislike of the 1%...rapidly hardening into hatred.

As long as Trump and his sock-puppet GOP politicians are viewed as separate from the 1%, chaos and cruelty will continue.

Should that change, (and Musk's penchant for self-immolation may be the origin point), the backlash will be brutal.

Still, I'd never bet against the stupidity of the American people.

A Trump successor will have to climb the barrier that Trump will do nothing to provide continuity. It'll be more like Macedon after the death of Alexander, it'll be a knife-fight over the spoils and nobody will win.

That doesn't necessarily mean anything good will happen, but a succession like the Kims in N.Korea isn't going to happen.
