Call it “deep state”, call it “puppet”, call it “the machine”, it can’t get anymore obvious that any president isn’t running things. Except one recently who tried to run things and was met with resistance and retaliation.

The original Progressives, like Woodrow Wilson and [Herbert Croly](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_Croly), believed that democracy couldn’t handle the challenges of a great modern nation. They proposed rule by experts, making rational and dispassionate decisions, in an expanded central government. And here we are.

The unelected people who are the technocrats rely on the government to make a living. Completely cocooned for the real world. While the people they often terrorize rely on themselves via the market to make a living. The technocrats threaten these people with loss of their livelihoods/liberty if they don’t comply. This is extortion and not governance.
