The process of self-destruction
The Saker observes that the
imperial USA is actively engaged in the process of destroying itself through
multiple channels:
Political
suicide: the Neocons’ refusal to accept the election of Donald Trump has
resulted in a massive campaign to de-legitimize him. What the Neocons clearly
fail to see, or don’t care about, is that by de-legitimizing Trump they are
also de-legitimizing the entire political process which brought Trump to power
and upon which the United States is built as a society. As a direct result of
this campaign, not only are millions of Americans becoming disgusted with the
political system they were indoctrinated to believe in, but internationally the
notion of “American democracy” is becoming a sad joke.
And just to make things worse, the US corporate media is finally revealing its true face and has now unapologetically shown the entire world that not only is it not in any way “fair” or “objective”, but that it is a 100% prostituted propaganda machine which faithfully serves the interests of the US “deep state”.
A key element of the quasi-constant brainwashing of the average American has always been the regular holding of elections. Never mind that, at least until now, the outcome of these elections made very little difference inside the US and none at all outside, the goal was never to consult the people – the goal has always been to give the illusion of democracy and people-power. Now that the Democrats say that the Russians rigged the elections and the Republicans say that it was the Democrats and their millions of dead voters who tried stealing it, it become rather obvious that these elections were always a joke, a pseudo-democratic “liturgy”, a brainwashing ritual – you name it – but never about anything real.
The emergence of the concept of the 1% can be “credited” to the Obama Administration, since it was during Obama that the entire “Occupy Wall Street” movement took off, but the ultimate unmasking of the viciously evil true face of that 1% must be credited to Hillary with her truly historical confession in which she openly declared that those who oppose her were a “basket of deplorables”. We already knew, thanks to Victoria Nuland, what the AngloZionist leaders thought of the people of Europe, now we know what they think of the people of the USA: exactly the same thing.
The bottom line is this: I don’t think that the moral authority and political credibility of the US have ever been lower than today. Decades of propaganda by Hollywood and the official US media machine have now collapsed and nobody buys that counter-factual nonsense anymore.

It is really rather remarkable
how desperately the bi-factional ruling party has been lashing out since the
God-Emperor became the nominee, and how ineffectual their flailings have been.
The unraveling of the government's moral authority is not yet complete, but it
is advanced and aggressive.
