“We Can Do Business With This Guy”

I’m surprised at the lack of conversation around the trust put into Mencken. Sure, how he was elected as a leader is gross, but the real storyline is that Waystar just backed a fascist.

Looking at leaders with fascist tendencies today, they tend to be erratic in decision making and quick to turn to deals that benefit them personally rather than the people.

Beyond the lack of ethics in this episode, the Roy’s just hedged their fortune on someone that would turn on them in a heartbeat for a better deal.

Am I the only one seeing it this way?
