That's the beauty of conservative hierarchies: everyone is conditioned to be exploited and eager to be so.
The same conditioned submission to authority is what keeps people voting blue no matter who despite rampant insider trading by DNC leadership. Those rich assholes are just as disgusted by their equally gullible supporters.
Edit:
I used to think American politics was Republicans shitting the bed and complaining it takes Democrats too long to wash the sheets. However, I've grown old enough to see it's just been Democrats normalizing shitting the bed so you'll accept ever dirtier sheets
If you think I'm wrong you should watch Obama sprint right while executing American citizens without due process and saying we weren't ready for gay equality.
Then further take note how an independent third party rated Hillary -right- of Trump just less authoritarian.

It’s a shame you’re being downvoted for this. The democrats are controlled opposition clowns and their supporters are essentially being swindled by Nigerian princes in an e-mail scam aimed at seniors who wouldn’t know better. It’s fucking painful to watch.
But if you send Hakeem Jeffries $20 right now, he'll eagerly reach across the aisle to do whatever the Heritage Foundation wants while belaboring all the noisy leftists that want him to do a goddamned thing beyond talk about how ketchup makes the boot taste better.
I still don’t understand why they beg me for money when they have their good billionaires dicks to suck instead.
I’ll never forgive Bernie for selling out my info to the democrat party.
