42. Russia's oligopoly is all about stealing money, then hiding the theft.

Were Trumpy to be successful, he'd mirror Putin's system of wealth accumulation. Putin is reportedly worth between 60 and 80 BILLION dollars.

Trumpy's GOPers will be the last to recognize that their 401ks will be stolen by Trumpy and his cronies and the money will be laundered overseas, just as Putin's cabal does. Trumpy's Fanboys (and the rest of us) will be left with NOTHING.
