The Anarchist theorem:

"To make things better, you first have to destroy the old system. Something newer, better, and more to your liking will grow out of the rubble, spontaneously."

Stage 1: Demolition, is well under way.

So yeah, the Anarchists are 'winning'.

So, does that make Trump an Anarchist? Looks like it!

Strangely enough though, in all the places in history where this idea has been tested, the outcome turns out to be worse than what you started with. Apparently flowers DON'T grow on the rubble of a destroyed civilization. Who would have guessed?
