Anyone else remember when the Republicans attacked Mitt Romney in the primaries for basically just being a corporate vulture? Oh well, sure, why not. A venture capitalist for Sec Navy. Not even business experience as a supplier or contractor for the Navy. So anyway, the US is now about as legitimate a government as Russia, post Soviet collapse. Third world country with a Gucci belt, nuclear power with a nakedly corrupt oligarchy in charge. (Yes I know third world has to do with nonaligned during the Cold War, pretend we all know its colloquial usage.)
