Oligarchs will bleed the American Treasury for as much as they can safely, legally acquire.

Second - as people have mentioned, there will be a fire storm on American Departments as they’re declared unnecessary and the the Oligarchs will acquire the rights to perform that function.

Third - the family farms will disappear absorbed by the big agri-corporations.

Fourth - they will eliminate programs that help Americans (middle class and poor) and replace them with saving-accounts that they will have to pay into.

Fifth - they will remove protections against predatory financing etc., consumer protections so that we have to fend for ourselves.

Sixth - I don’t think that they can eliminate Social Security and Medicare for existing people on these programs, but will phase out benefits for those not currently on these programs. I believe that they will also change the program where people will get 50% in defined benefits and 50% in contributory benefits.

Seventh - They will eliminate protections for Labor rights, Unions.

Eighth - they will take away the guns!!!

Ninth - MAGA will love it, cause they are screwing over POC and Women, not recognizing that they will suffer more.

Possibly for us - they’ll give us a steady diet of conflicts, propaganda and misinformation to further confuse us into who our real adversaries are and who are our friends (Pro-Putin stuff).

And then, they will start to do the crazy stuff. Trump won’t be in the mix at some point, cause of health (or impeachment) but his VP will make this all sound good.

Neighbors will turn against neighbors, friends against friends, Christians against non-Christian’s, Educated/Elites against the stupids. Gotta remember that there are more stupids than smart.

Think I’m going to go take a nap.

Oh, I forgot - at some point our money has diminishing value, maybe the beginning of Argentina inflation - and a push for moving the American funds into some type of Trump-BitCoin.

Party over….
