Clever distractions and hidden corruption, huge profits and foreign policy, centralized power and libertarianism, cryptocurrencies and the White House – these all come together in America’s government and economy. How do such seemingly contradictory attributes blend into one strategy? Stablecoins. Or, perhaps, the aggregation of wealth via digital asset treasuries, or even, personal aggrandizement. Or it might be driven by what is being called the “broligarchy.” Whatever is driving momentum toward centralizing financial and political power and expanding personal wealth through actions that challenge or abridge tradition and the rule of law, the various components of this new reality, when all laid out in one place, is still shocking.
