    Not an american but personally i would most definitely prefer an absolute fuckwad with little self control in charge than an evil mastermind entity hellbent on squeezing me for every cent.

    The former is too stupid not to ruin his lever of power, which would cause the system to decentralize and/or contribute to said fuckwad’s downfall. The latter employs a huge amount of people specifically trained to maintain and increase the amount of profits extracted while maintaining their stranglehold.

      That is why I am hoping that if America has a 2nd Civil War or does a WW3, it would start off with Trump in charge of the bad guys. It would hurt, but at least victory over the Orange One would be almost guaranteed. Thiel or Bezos? More iffy, they have some grasp of logistics, patience, and other fundamentals.
