We all know Trump is creating an elite ruling class, right?

Placing his family and rich friends in positions of power and influence.
That tends to end poorly for the common folk...

That is nepotism.

Nah, there was already an aristocracy in America. All Trump did was establish a ruling dynasty. He's probably designing his coat of arms as we speak.

Did anyone complain when bill Clinton put Hillary in charge of health care when he was president?
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@MrBrownstone: Because Hilary Clinton being in charge of health care equals...an elite ruling class. That makes perfect sense 🙄

@BlueMetalChick: Read the rest of her question.

@MrBrownstone: Ever notice that the First Lady of the United States usually has to do something important? I guess Franklin Roosevelt created a rich elite ruling class by giving Elanor positions of leadership too. So did JFK by letting Jackie O be a big name.
It's been around for centuries. He's just maybe a bit more obvious than some other western leaders. In other societies such as North Korea it's very obvious nepotism from father to son.

@Celine: agreed. And you're right to say that it doesn't well serve the common folk. The wealth inequality in the world now is disturbing.
MarineBob · 56-60, M
all the previous presidents have also
MarineBob · 56-60, M
the perks of the job
Gauntlets28 · 26-30, M
@MarineBob: Not really. In fact I'm pretty sure that falls under the label of 'corruption'.
MarineBob · 56-60, M
how those with true influence is confirmed by congress

He's no different than the rest of them. They all put their friends and rich donors in power.
hunkalove · 61-69, M
He has friends?
Fernie · F
@hunkalove: HA!

[i]Creating[/i] an elite ruling class? You're talking as if an elite ruling class has not already existed for many years. He's [i]reinforcing[/i] the elite ruling class. Which is still just as bad.

@Jackjjacksonjr: I can't tell if that's directed at me or Celine, but if it's directed at me, sorry to tell you but I don't suddenly become a "Mrs. Clinton lemming" because you decided to pretend so. Cos I'm not.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
@BlueMetalChick:

Nope it was directed to Ms Dion Jr of course 😜
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@Jackjjacksonjr: I see.

Yes, that was probably somewhat predictable, too.
