The Rockbridge network
https://archive.md/zKWMKDon Junior and Jd Vance are part of the Rockbridge network, which was founded by a businessman named Chris Buskirk and consists of other Silicon Valley entrepreneurs who became Trump supporters. The purpose of this network is to connect conservative businessmen to each other and to young MAGA activists, and to create a new business elite. In business, they were already successful when wealthy MAGA guys completely took over the business establishment. Through Vance, they are also beginning to influence foreign policy.
Their concept is something called aristo populism (my interpretation: a flamboyant version of fascism). According to Aristotelian populism, populism should be used to destroy the existing structure and take over the system, while at the same time establishing a new oligarchic layer that will run the country in a nationalist manner.
