”If Trump doesn’t obey the Supreme Court,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said in March, “and the rule of law goes by the wayside, I believe that there will be an immediate and strong reaction from one end of the country to the other in ways we have never seen.” He added: “Our democracy will be at stake then… we’ll all have to stand up and fight back in every way.”

“Not me of course,” he continued. “The plebs. The plebs will have to stand up and fight back in every way. I can’t be expected to effect positive change in government. Don’t be ridiculous!” he laughed.

This. The plebs and the elite seem to be waiting for the other to cast the first lot. Meanwhile the orange turd continues to stink up the whole place and make his buddies billions. Good job USA.

The thing is, the few more liberal elite are already afraid of the top kicking downwards so they will not stick out their necks... the rest of the elite is trying to join the plundering of the loot.

And the plebs? They're being kept preoccupied by the lies and fake conflicts, and overwhelmed by their financial situation that traps them in a cycle of working as many jobs they can to keep a roof over their heads...

Until mass layoffs cause a plebian army with plenty of time on their hands no uprising will gain traction.
