I find Trump's continued reference to this current time as the new "Golden Era" a very interesting choice of words. Most ppl thought that MAGA meant a return to mid-century pre-Civil rights America when Donald was a young man. But the more I think about it, he's referencing a return to The Gilded Era: the time American Oligarchs ran the country before they drove it in the ground during the 20s and allowed FDR to flatten society and create a middle class (that America thrived under) through the 40s, on.
If not for The Great Depression, America was well on its way to become an oligarchy. A society whose billionaires were handpicked not by the presidents, but by JP Morgan Chase, the true wizard behind the curtain. It's been the billionaire class's mission ever since, to return America to its rightful class framework. Perhaps that's Elon's obsession: to become today's JP Morgan Chase with his financial app bridging crypto (BRICS) and USG treasury. Then he can control the oligarchs in both realms.
In true Trumpian style (who should supplant the coined term "orwellian", I wonder), he refers to this time as "golden" which is a step up from "gilded". Gilded is not golden, but golden is gold through and through; that is if the gold was all ones and zeros.
