I’d like to see more major-media reports on how the involvement of Elon Musk with a) the Presidential Transition, b) the House Republican Conference, c) the Senate Republican Conference, and d) lobbyists is already unlike anything America has ever seen with a non-government adviser. 100% horrifying.

Every single Republican will fall in line and every person Donald Trump nominates will be confirmed. No GOP Senator will stand in the gap because they’re all afraid Elon Musk will finance a primary against them. Let’s stop pretending otherwise.

Trump has been able to channel the intensifying anger of the working class away from the real causes of working-class distress — away from the big corporations, wealthy individuals, and denizens of Wall Street whose money has rigged the game against average working people.
