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.
Are they really as untouchable as you say? Dude, we are touching them/ financially hurting them/ financially threatening them right now which is why your politicians are going ape shit, supporting stupid stuff and acting more like a bunch foreign/ global politicians than American politicians right now. The proof is in the pudding as we say.
Are you hurting the Kochs? What about the Mercers? For that matter, what about the less public but equally rightwing Billionaires, many of whom are financing the Nationalists, as yo call them?
You only see what you want to see and disregard the rest. (handwave to Paul Simon for that)
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
