The farewell to the self-proclaimed "land of freedom" has arrived: Arbitrariness is replacing constitutional law in the USA, President Donald Trump is clearing the way for the rule of the super-rich.

Pulling a new rabbit out of the top hat every day or flooding the public with presidential decrees so that opponents no longer know what to focus on: President Trump is surpassing all fears.
