So now Bolling is blaming the degeneration of the US into a plutocracy on the Russians as well? Well, I’m sure the establishment Democrats would love the idea. On the contrary, the achievement was entirely of domestic origins. The real enemy of US democracy isn’t abroad, but at home, and in both parties.
The only thing that seems “off” in this strip is that Hollingsworth Hound appears to be having a crisis of conscience, rather than gleefully participating in the corruption and destruction of our nation.
“The poor have been rebels, but they have never been anarchists; they have more interest than anyone else in there being some decent government. The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn’t; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all. " — G. K. Chesterton, The Man Who Was Thursday
Aww come on. Stop the billionaire bashing. They don’t have to pay taxes because they created all those jobs for the lucky flunkies. That’s where the taxes come from.
As so many trump supporters have learned…once you sell you soul, it’s very hard to get back. Almost next to impossible in fact. For one very simple reason. To get back your soul, you have to first admit you were wrong. And the ego of most people won’t allow them to do that.

I’m not sure at this point that any of the elites have much soul left to feel regret for selling the country out.

Except the Hollingsworths IRL have no remorse about selling out to the Russians. So much winning!

When you are selfish and in power, you must expect to have it come back and bite you in the rear sooner or later!
