With Ginni Thomas as a "mastermind", they have a bigger problem than they realize. The only thing significant about them is their money and access. But their views are childish and their ideas are lame.

They are not formidable, they are impostors in the positions they are in. Take-able, I'd say. I'd bet the ranch that not one of them could stand a stiff investigation, because those types are as dirty as the day is long. I used to know a lot of people of their ilk years ago, and every one was a cesspool of some sort.
