There is a major error in the linked article which is claiming its the end of the establishment rather than just another turn of the cyclical wheel.  Also it carefully avoids recent history.<p>On the R side I&#x27;m one of the guys who was kicked out by the neocons for not being a bond villain warmonger or televangelist wannabe.  The neos were the establishment for a couple decades, and now the wheel turns and we&#x27;re going back to &quot;real&quot; republicans again and kicking out the neos.  I&#x27;m pretty happy Trump voter, but I&#x27;m really an anti-Jeb voter or anti-Rubio voter.  Is Trump the best real republican out there?  Probably not, but he&#x27;s the first in the limelight of this new cycle.<p>On the D side their party kicked out all the hippies and replaced them with Wall Street shills.  At least in leadership positions.  The R purged their entire party whereas the D has always had hippies, just no longer in leadership.  Again they&#x27;re not eliminating the concept of an establishment, they&#x27;re just kicking the wall street shills out and putting the hippies back in charge.  Again, is Sanders the best hippie out there?  Probably not, but he&#x27;s the first in the limelight of this new cycle.<p>If I can&#x27;t vote for Trump I&#x27;ll vote for Sanders.  I trust an honest enemy more than I trust my own parties former leaders.  I don&#x27;t think this is an unusual outlook, either.  If, oh who am I kidding, when, Hillary screws Sanders out of the nomination, Trump should pick Sanders as veep, that would be epic.<p>The interesting part is the synchronization across party lines.  Both parties having a coup at the same time?  Well, the rank and file have more in common with each other than they do with their former leadership, so...<p>Other than those minor issues its a very good article.
