Establishment...Aristocracy, oligarchy or both?

[Missourian]

I think it is time to forgo use of the word Establishment, and start calling it like it is..Aristocracy or oligarchy...or both.

The Establishment was all in behind the THIRD Bush. Last election it was the SECOND Romney.

This time around, their aristocratic hero failing to pick up forth place, they are going full force to destroy the choice of the democratically held primaries to insure they get an insider pick that they can control in lieu of the outsider candidate that has won three out of four primaries and is poised to sweep Super Tuesday.

And if Rubio fails...they are preparing to throw Romney the Second (his father was governor of Michigan AND the first Presidential loser in the family) into the primary, to defeat Trump.

So, is it time we call the GOP Establishment what it is? The 21st century American Aristocratic Oligarchy.

I tend to agree. There are policiticians on both sides that seem to have maintianed their positions for an unnaturally long time.

You know, the President has term limits, he can only serve for a maximum of 2 terms in office.

Why don't we have something like that for Congress? Let the Senate and the Congress serve for a maximum of 10 years, and after that, they have to leave office for at least 1 term, and they can run again after they've sat out an election.

Senator Sessions continued, “We are nearing fast the point of no return. The people are hurting. Their wages are declining. Their schools are overburdened. Their hospitals are stretched past the breaking point. Crime is up, and community confidence is down. Americans of all backgrounds and ethnicities, immigrant and US-born, are crying out for leadership that puts their needs first, that takes care of those living and dreaming here today, leadership that understands that there is no constituency other than the American constituency. Mr. Trump is that leader.

We are witnessing an incredible movement, arising from the people.

The events of history have aligned to give the people this fleeting chance to bust up the oligarchy – to take back control from the ‘Masters of the Universe’ return it to the good and decent and patriotic citizens of the United States.”

He he he....

Nothing like relying on a multi-billionaire to stop the aristocracy.

The GOP isn't called the party of stupid for nothing

I'd take an aristocrat over a fascist any day of the week.
