   Essentially, it boils down to the fact that Trump "accidentally" became the   
   leader of the Republicans, and it actually suited the billionaires. He's one   
   of them. He does have a mind of his own, and that's a problem, but it did   
   distract from the successful coup.   
      
   In that sense, Trump has proven to be a useful idiot for the very richest in   
   the US.   
      
   As soon as Trump can be removed, the billionaires' men will take over. They   
   have no support base and therefore no leverage to pursue their own policies or   
   assert their own will. JD Vance and Scott Bessent are easily exchanged for   
   more compliant ones if they start to gain traction.   
      
   The judges aren't a problem; they were bought more than twenty years ago. Most   
   senators, too, for that matter. In many cases, from both parties.
