I have a controversial opinion wrapped in a conspiracy. And it starts like this:
You ever look at the Trump administration and the senate and the recent electoral candidates and notice something... odd?... in common to them? Think about it. Trump, Guiliani, Clinton, Schumer, heck even Sanders, are rather influencial people who couldn't be more different. But they all do have something in common. And that is New York. There are a lot of New Yorkers in the business of government, and they're vying for control. Now, the New York Conspiracy, as it were, would suggest that they are completely of one mind and goal against the rest. But thats not necessarily true. There is a clear conflict to be had between the Sanders end, the Clinton end, and the Trump end. But, at least two of these parties are of a single mind in one way: New York is priority. The rest are just collateral.
Why New York? Why fight so hard for it? why fight so hard in favor of a culturally and economically influencial city of the US? Why fight so hard for a major trade port and nexus of global cultural exchange? Why, in your plan for political dominance and and enrichment, would you not want to use it for your ends? Exactly.
The question is, how are they fighting? What are their assumptions?
Trump may seem like he's fighting for the mid west and rural states. But, It may well just be that he's merely using them because he thinks their services and labor will be useful to his center. Thats right, thars new york. And maybe he thinks the wealth of the elite will trickle down to the rest of the city. That they won't vote his way isn't his problem. What matters is that his friends in his place get more.
The Clintons already have the support of the city, and see little incentive in trying to get friends elsewhere. What matters to them about it is that its a propaganda arm for bankers, industrialists, and investors of their liking. The economic benefits and advantages might flow for the rest of the east from that location, satisfying just the right number of people and making things in the US look gold for the papers and cameras.
Sanders also intends to jse the city for similar reasons. Its a source of wealth to draw from and coverage to project out of. Its a home for the banks he wishes to break after all. So, its expedient to his politics and social-economic programs to leverage it.
But really, behind it all, these "Chosen Ones" are fighting for the dominance and enshrinement in power of one corner of the country that they all emerged from.
