I mean that the large special interests in this election- Wall Street, globalists, Washington/swamp, lobbyists, big tech, main stream media, academia, corporate America, etc- were all heavily influencing the election in joe Biden's favor.
Typically there is a somewhat better balance, with corporate America and Wall Street propping up Republican candidates- Washington, the media, and big tech remaining at least slightly unbiased- with academia and globalists reliabley propping up democrats.
Not this year. It was all in, all hands on deck, get rid of trump. I'm not sure how that doesn't make anyone nervous in and of itself.
I will take a bite at this.
This presumes that just if everyone attacks a single political element that this element is innocent. While in fact all this may actually indicate how bad this political element really is. It is so bad that everyone with competency of the landscape understood that this show can't continue if the country will survive.
I will be specific:
Trump is escalating tensions with China when it is very unclear if the US has the means to win this trade war. Especially since he is alienating the traditional allies.
His pandemic response is absolutely rock bottom in pretty much every way and objectively can be said he mess this up. Especially since he is actively down playing the problem. Plus he has thrown away trillions with a failed lockdown. While in fact he should have made everything possible to provide that money to the people and that they stay at home. Therefore through that he totally "polluted" the idea of a lockdown and that in the end resulted with huge drama and major economic damage.
He is taking a stabs at EU and thus he is provoking economy that makes about 18 trillion $ a year. What can cause major economic damage and loss of influence. Especially since China is actively trying to make EU more neutral in US-China dispute.
He pulled out of Iran deal, what gives Iran free hands to restart it's nuclear program. What in the end makes open war with Iran basically inevitable, even if US doesn't really have the resources for that at the moment. Since Iran is a dig in mountain country with 80+ million people and direct aid from Russia and China.
He never really took an active afford to calm things down in domestic issues and he is evidently the main factor in bring the country to the edge of civil war.
Out of the 200 countries he is the only one that pulled out of Climate change deal. What provoked quite a lot of bad publicity and loss of influence and that in general results with economic damage. The same goes for WHO and similar organizations. In a way by leaving them he only made sure that China has more of a say in all of them.
He continued to run huge deficits and with the pandemic that exploded completely out of control, while he has shown very little genuine desire to control the pandemic in the right way. What in the end resulted with serious economic downturn that really didn't have to be this deep.
I suppose I could find a few more talking points but I think this is enough. Therefore the educated or competent people at the top simply realized that he has no workable vision of the future and therefore most of them decided to go against him before he blows up the country completely. Since he really didn't give them much of a choice when you take a look at the things in more complex manner.
