Why the hell would it be? Donald Trump is a lifelong corpo. Anyone who believes he gives a single shit about the common folk is delusional.
The system will be tuned to work even better for corporate profits at the expense of the citizens.
What an understatement of a headline.
The guardian has the hottest takes.

AMA request: Someone who genuinely believes that Trump's cabinet will be anti-Wall Street.
I believe his (and Putin's) goal is to destabilize (destroy) the western order, devalue the current global currency (USD), crash the central banks, fully shift economic power eastward, inflate crypto.
Tariffs on all north American trading partners will cause harm to the entire continent and beyond.
If none can trade, none can profit. If the tarrifs go to gov, with this admin, will they really?
The only thing pro wall street will be how they siphon off whatever wealth is left, pump and dump, crash and burn.
Trump has no goal other then self gratification and being the center of attention. Putin's goal is to destabilize the US and he's doing that by supporting Trump.
Paradoxically Trump only cares about cash of which I imagine is American currency. So confusing.
Mf he is literally Mister Wallstreet, that was his entire shtick and TV personality, how the fuck anyone got "he's anti wall street" out of that needs to be committed
Who thought it would be? I see Musk's name come up repeatedly in the article, but I don't know why he'd think this or even why he'd be mad about this since he owes his vast fortunes to wall street. I could imagine cryptocurrency clowns thinking Trump would give them an anti-wall street cabinet, but they're too stupid to realize that bitcoin is valued as high as it is now because of wall street, even though these same clowns were cheering so hard about bitcoin ETFs being approved a short while ago.
I had thought tfg and his cabinet were entirely pro Wall Street ...
Announcing the continued mascot of the responses to the incoming administration:
Congratulations, surprised Pikachu! 🎉
Special commendation for the runner up, Face-eating Leopard. 🏆
"Pol Pot isn't as anti-agrarian as some Cambodians may want to believe."
The “anti” was “sarcasm”
Unrelated but that is an extremely unfortunate name to have today.
He hired a top investor for their ultimate boogeyman, George Soros... The lesson to take is once you give a narcissist what he wants that is the end of your usefulness and your opinion being honored is no longer a means to an end. This important lesson will be unlearned in less than 4 years.
