Can one still claim that the USA is a liberal democracy? Where do you draw the line?

    When Eisenhower warned of Military Industrial complex, US was already an oligarchy, and the warning was the declaration of defeat.

    JFK assassination was deep state stuff, followed by more pandering to oligarchy with Regan. Media was always in charge of who won elections. That the veil of pretense for liberalism is removed doesn’t change the nature of US empire, and its autocracy over meaningful rulership. Trump simultaneously threatens the US empire’s covert colonization of world, while threatening to subjugate world even harder. Naked Oligarchy, and explicit anti-liberalism as treason, is a hallmark of incoming rulership through.
