(113,927 posts)The rich were already there. Nixon brought in organized crime and the southern and mudwestern buigots. Reagan pandered to all the crackpot religions, especially the ones that labeled women subhuman. Bush/Cheney saw the party going full fascist. TFG is supposed to bring all that together in a dictatorship: he's still rich enough, hea crook, he gives lip service to reluigious crazies, and he's a malignant narcissist who thinks he's already our king. Running for office is only a formality, the last one was rigged, his people will make sure this one goes his way, then nobody will have to worry about voting ever again.
If he gets beaten this time, his ego will compel him to run again in 4 years, at the age of 82. The GOP will likely comply, they have no principles or policies left, only the larger than life fat felon with the pep rally following.
They need to stumble off to the elephants' graveyard, alread, but they'll keep sputtering on until rich men find a home elsewhere.
