Will globalist neocons, neoliberals, and their lobbies, continue to decide our politics?


Globalism has been deciding politics for some time now, the "global supply chain" is protected at all costs. That is unhinged hypertrophied capitalism, but it doesn't mean socialism is the alternative, economic nationalism is the alternative, one that nevertheless trades with the world.

That was President Trump's tone or emphasis which appealed to the Trump supporters who elected him. Will he hold to it? Even if he is ultimately out to make more money for Trump Incorporated, if the money comes from economic nationalism I think that would be OK with his followers---although it is better to have politician's not ruled by money or special interest groups, odd as that sounds in today's world.

Will Trump be defeated by the globalist neocons and neoliberals who are totally backed by (or own) the Big Media, Hollywood, and the big academic faculties? Many globalist's care only about money and are politically libertarian individualists, but some globalist's are politically group-oriented and support ethnocentric causes. Will they continue to define and decide politics?

Populist nationalism and economic nationalism are rising all over the world and the globalist's are having problems containing it. Globalism does seem to be heading for a high and tight hair cut. Will they turn to fascism on the left or the right to contain it? That wouldn't surprise us.
