I stated the same in an essay on Social Matter how Trump is a demon of the establishment's design. Good to see Glenn is catching on.

The phrase is from the IT world, where unintended and (to any outside observer) flawed aspects of a system are often explained away as features. A joke but not a joke sort of comment.

“Orphaned voters aren’t a bug but a feature for a ruling class that would prefer to rule without them, Reynolds notes.”

Surely “aren’t a feature but a bug”?

Indeed, to paraphrase Z Man from The Z Blog again:

We are in the consolidation phase now, the managerial elite has achieved class consciousness and both parties work together to present only those options to the public that serve the ruling class. They are closing ranks and blowing the bridges and tunnels connecting them with the rest of us. If you find yourself on the wrong side of the river when the bridge is blown, you’re left behind. It's clear that the #1 problem Americans are facing is from their own rulers, none of these other issues can be addressed while that problem is unaddressed. If you want to make the argument that we are in the post-democracy era, this election is the place to start.
