If the Nationalists win, that will mean that most of the elites have been destroyed, and the remaining ones will have been cowed into submission.
That depends on which elites you're addressing. The wealthy elite are, for all practical purposes, untouchable by the nationalists who rant on about foreigners, not them. If anything, the wealthy elite are completely happy to join in the immigrant-bashing, while using their at-risk talents to make millions or Billions for themselves.
The Nationalists would love to take out the Globalist elites. Soros, Gates and Microsoft's campuses in India, Google and Facebook and their immigrant engineers and managers, I could easily see Nationalists take a wrecking ball to them as the crisis gets more intense.
Thank you for making my point. Note the entire lack of anyone from the much more typical rightwing wealthy elite. Where ae the Mercers and Kochs? Yes, the Nationalists are happy to bash internationalists for being, well, internationalists. But none of the Nationalists want to tax the extremely wealthy the way they need to be taxed to reduce their stranglehold on the economy … none!
So now you're claiming that Soros and Gates aren't wealthy? That's some serious self delusion there.
