I was talking about their already-hapless betrayals of key constituencies, betrayals that will continue apace because they were thoughtless and flip.

Power is ephemeral; without authority to back it up, it slips in and out of hands like an eel. That's why power can be seized, but authority must be given.

There are too many countervailing forces with adequate influence for these despots to both degrade QOL universally in this country AND retain any authority.
