Amidst our current chaos

A vortex of needs, social, political, constitutional, somewhere on the list, can we please an entry for "A New OverClass" for the USA? Because the bunch we have now are embarrassing even by the abysmal standards of the Roman Senate of Commodus Augustus.
We are ruled by alleged perverts, sick old reprobates, chiselers and what amounts to a rising and expanding class of wealthy panhandlers with the keys to the US Treasury....
They'd be clowns and perhaps grimly entertaining ones if they weren't hell bent on reducing the USA to Third World Status, regardless of our awesome nuclear arsenal and gaudy armed forces.
Frankly we are one good TIA away from nuclear holocaust...but lets not let that get in the way of a good reform project shall we?
Lets at least start with the notion that movement conservatism as envisioned by William F. Buckley and Barry Goldwater is dead, the whole cult of patriotism, rule of law, constitutionalism is very much dead as well. And when these things perish, what you get, by default, is Donald Trump.
So, we need a new overclass, I don't pretend this will resolve any of our current political and social problems but at least we will have elites loyal to this country and its Constitution, at this point, I'd take that (and that ain't much believe me) over the collection of vagabond mercenaries who rule us as of today.
