 True, statism wins, in a way, however:  they’ve tried to kill Trump twice already.  If they finally succeed…we might see some real change.  In a way, I think the best outcome of the election would be an eventual successful assassination of Trump.  I don’t wish death on him, but he’s had a long life and martyrdom would be a good spark for things to come.  It’s a sacrifice I would make, especially at his age. 
 I wonder who would become Augustus Trump in the new American Empire if that were to happen.
