In an entrenched system... the incumbents will fight their hardest to undermine a new agenda regardless of whether it is good or bad for the people. Their very survival is at stake. In WW2 at the Battle of the Bulge, the Germans fought their hardest even though they knew the war was lost. Staus quo for the elites is their agenda.... they will do what they can to prevent change. It is certainly going to be a battle and I believe the real war is going to be hidden mostly from view. As a previous comment from Tony stated: Let's hope (and pray) that the new administration will stay focused and do what needs to be done.........

I found the photo of the McDonald's dinner party on the plane with Kennedy, Trump and Musk amusing. While Trump was gleeful, Kennedy looked a bit pained. I assume the purpose was to assure industries that the industrial pipeline to making their things won't be shut off with a quick turn but rather gradually. Sri Lanka was an unfortunate example that some addictions need gradual weaning from.
