Russia seems to be the template here, not the warning. Draw out the Russian oligarchies and if things keep going in the same direction you can probably map them to the equivalent in the US in a few years.

russia doesnt have oligarchs for 15 years at least, it has the opposite of it. Oligarchs control the big chunks of economy, media and have a lot of political influence direct and indirect. What they have right now is some friends of the dictator who own something until dictator allows them.

The closest US has to olugarcha is Bezos and Musk, but they dont have each their own party and a few poket ministers in addition to owm bank and 20ish percent gdp.

US is still too big and rich for this shit

I think we are well into uncharted territory. One thing's for sure - here be dragons. I'm sure the US version of oligarchy will come in its unique flavor. Probably people won't even fall out of windows! That mode of "suicide" is maybe distinctly Russian.

I don't want to disappoint, but you won't get oligarchy. You will get dictatorship and war.

It makes sense actually. :-( The US might be "free" and federated enough to not just bow down to a dictator.
