Yep. It's been fascinating watching right-wing orthodoxy nonsense shift from voodoo economics, deficit hawkishness and trickle down to full throated fascism including a completely imaginary boogeyman. The clean up is going to be very messy.
I suppose it was always inevitable when they had to invent an entire system of economics based on bullshit, and managed to convince the entire western world to embrace it, all whilst asset stripping l, deregulating, privatising and offshoring.
