Really Dumb?

The question that keeps occurring to a confirmed regime opponent like myself in this First Year of the Great Biden Era is this: What is really going on? Is the ruling class executing on a brilliant strategy to transform the political landscape for the next generation? Are they just fumbling along, trying to keep ahead of their wokist crazies? Or are they executing another of Baldrick’s Cunning Plans that will inevitably blow up in their faces? Let’s look at Option One. The closest thing I have ever seen to a brilliant strategy is Bill Clinton’s 1992 “New Democrat” campaign: nobody here but us moderates.

I don't accept the question. I would call them treasonous.

They aren't geniuses, but they aren't dumb either. They are corrupt, tyrannical, decadent, privileged, and elitest though. They are out for themselves at the expense of everyone else. They aren't above having people killed along the way to their goals either.

The so-called "elites" have varying levels of intelligence, but the main trait most of them share is everything they do is to advance themselves. They have tunnel-vision, focused on their conceit and egoism. Their every action is weighed not on whether it will help the country or other people, but on the effect it will have on their own career, bank account and future.

The so-called "Ruling Class" have their own interests at heart. Like Cori Bush, who deserves $300,000 in personal security, while defunding the Police.
Like all the RINOs who hold "public office" for the purpose of getting rich.
They are smart. They know how to get money. They know how to spend money on themselves. See the 45-60 party recently held on Martha's Vineyard.
"The people be damned." I think the head of GM said that, back in the 'teens.
"I am entitled...", says AOC, Toothy McBigTits, to whatever she wants.
Like Mitch McConnell, who continues to hold public office while doing nothing.
"There is no distinctively native American criminal class except Congress", said Mark Twain. He was right in 1880 and still right now.
And our dear SCOTUS has removed the third and fourth items in the Bill of Rights from the Bill of Rights, as well as Article I, section 4. SCOTUS has declared itself (a creation of the Constitution) illegitimate. No Constitution = no SCOTUS. Stop paying them.
And Queen Nancy has her own brownshirts. the U S Capitol Police, who have begun acting nationwide as her enforcers. Sieg Heil!
And if you own property, you have the right to maintain that property, but you certainly cannot charge for its use. You must care for that property under pain of jail. It is just all white power and white privilege.

The globalists are running the show here. The dims are just following orders. And the msm just covers up for them. That's what is going on.

Christopher leaves out the fact that everything the Biden Admin is doing fulfills the Cloward/Piven strategy to collapse the American systems by weighing them all down.
The goal of Cloward/Piven was communism replacing American freedom.
Are Biden's handlers sure they will be lead dogs in the new system after this collapse?
Lots of those who were the most helpful to the commies actually taking over any country found themselves up against walls or with hatchets in their necks BY THEIR own idols, the commies who consolidated power to themselves.

Why do Americans have a “Ruling Class”. Weren’t we founded as a nation of self-governing citizens. If you consider yourself a “ruler” in this country, then I consider you a tyrant and a traitor. It is my most fervent patriotic desire to kill you.

Arrogant because they know that the so called free press will cover for them.No lie too big and no action too terrible, the MSM will always cover for them because the MSM is the PR arm of the dem party.

Hanlon's Rule:
No need to invoke malice when stupidity suffices.
Variant of Occam's Razor.
The simplest explanation is usually correct.

Dumb? I think not. I remember that Jesus Christ Himself pointed out that bad guys are often more clever than the good guys.

None of the above, they truly don't care what we think and that they are entitled to do whatever.
