Trump
The Poster-Boy for Late-Stage Capitalism



"And if all that isn't enough, there's TRUMP!
If I'd been asked to write a character to represent late-stage capitalism, I couldn't have come up with anything more appropriate than him. A real estate grifter turned reality TV host turned president, with a gold-plated toilet that surely stands as a metaphor for his tasteless, superficial sociopathic grasp of reality.
What would Mark Twain have made of him?
This Trump administration makes Twain's book, The Gilded Age look like something from Renaissance Italy."
