Much of the current tension in America and in many other democracies is in fact a product of a class struggle.
It's not the typical struggle that involved Marxists in the past.
Yugoslav dissident Milovan Djilas called these party hacks the “New Class,” noting that instead of workers and peasants against capitalists, it was now a case of workers and peasants being ruled by a managerial new class of technocrats who, while purporting to act for the benefit of the workers and peasants, somehow wound up with the lion’s share of the goodies. Workers and peasants stood in long lines for bread and shoddy household goods, while party leaders and government managers bought imported delicacies in special, secret stores.

To understand what’s going on with President Donald Trump and his opposition, and in other countries as diverse as France, Hungary, Italy and Brazil, it’s important to realize that the post-World War II institutional arrangements of the Western democracies are being renegotiated, and that those democracies’ professional and managerial elites don’t like that very much, because they have done very well under those arrangements. And, like all elites who are doing very well, they don’t want that to change.
In other words, the people are starting to figure out the scam by the elites and it's the reason Trump (and others like him) got elected. This is the "renegotiation" mentioned above. People are rethinking the "institutional arrangements" that have been set up, such as...
NATO
The United Nations
The World Bank
a proliferation of think tanks and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs)
the vast expansion of higher education in the United States, and the transformation of academic degrees into something close to must-haves for the upper-middle class
a great expansion of power on the part of media organizations
an expansion of government bureaucrats and lobbyists
So we are figuring out that all of the entities in this list really aren't doing us any good, and we want change. But they don't want change because they don't want the goodies and the power to go away.
What’s happening in America is an echo of what’s happening in democracies around the world, and it’s not happening because of Trump. Trump is the symptom of a ruling class that many of the ruled no longer see as serving their interest, and the anti-Trump response is mostly the angry backlash of that class as it sees its position, its perquisites and — perhaps especially — its self-importance threatened.
For those who haven't followed this.....neither China nor Russia want to be part of this NWO.
Now go study your geopolitics over the past 2 years... geopolitics is chess, not checkers like US politics.
And money is flowing out of this country like a broken fire hydrant

I agree with this... I think they are riding shotgun while the NWO groups are taking us and other western nations out - but at some point, they will break away.

Yeah because a man with a gold toilet in his house is the epitome of the anti-elitist movement.

I think OPEC (SA) may have just joined them when they closed off the oil spigot before midterms. We'll have to wait and watch and see what happens
