Many politicians and politically connected have contempt for the people and constitution.
A most revealing message of wikileaks indicated the necessity of the public remaining unaware and compliant.
Its not the fake news that got Trump elected, its the real news like Ericsson payola, saying "We're going to put a lot of coal miners and coal companies out of business," at one venue, something totally different at another, being carted away ill.
