the rich fairly control our politicians now, so is putting a billionaire in the oval office going to turn us into an Oligarchy run country.
I say this as Trump said yesterday that he though his pal Phil Ruffman would be an good deal maker with China, who is another billionaire, so can we expect more of his rich pals to just take over? I think Trump is so far removed from say "us normal people who make less than 100 grand a year" and has been all his life, along with most of the other rich people that he is buds with. Not all the rich people came from money , I'm not saying that, but he did. Is he really going to do what is good for us, or for his rich pals and family members. I am getting the feeling that he just may not be my pick anymore.
It sounds to me like if he doesn't like what Congress would have to say, it will be too bad. A country becomes a Oligarchy mainly via marriage, that is how the rich get to rule.
Which Countries Are Oligarchies and Why?
