Make no mistake, the 1% and 0.1% repigs live in the same bubble world that their brainless supporters in the 99% (usually the lowest 25% and getting lotsa gov't handouts, according to the NY Times) do. So according to the alternate reality they live in, they're the alphas with no challengers on the horizon.

The 1% and 0.1% now have no problem basically just telling people they're in a Darwinian struggle with the cards loaded against them. Between voter caging, repig election fraud, and Citizen's United, the psychopaths think they can issue endless refrains of Marie Antoinette and get away with it.

The sad thing is they're probably right.
