As a former POTUS DC GOP GM-15-10 and an American citizen NPA with no political affiliation, I see a white elephant.
This expression signifies a burdensome possession that is more trouble than it is worth. and a doomed enterprise, on which large sums of money are spent and which is then abandoned.
References date back to at least the early 17th century. The first time in English to the idiomatic meaning of the term ‘white elephant’ was in 1851 G. E. Jewbury’s Letters, 1892: His services are like so many white elephants, of which few can make use of, and yet that drains one’s gratitude.
Atletes can get along on the sports fields, while oligarchs are explicit in what they are trying to do to America’s democracy. Americans may soon be living like strangers in a strange land while voters are unprepared for what they have allowed to happen and the nation disintegrates..

I was taught to judge people by their actions and words. Did a guy who was once a Democrat become a turncoat convict? This transformation is also called becoming an opportunist. https://www.axios.com/politics-policy/donald-trump
Happy Holidaze to all and unfortunately a bad, and sad bye... And so it goes.
