Who was Wilson's Soros?
I like to ask historical pattern questions. They don't always have a definite answer, but they tend to pry out other useful insights along the way.
Q: Who was the Soros figure in the first incarnation of Deepstate?
The Epstein figure is obvious. Lady Edgar. A sexual deviant who used sexual deviance to blackmail everyone else into abject submission. Lady Edgar continued to fill that slot until she stopped blackmailing in 1973. Then there was a 10-year interregnum, partly filled by Roy Cohn, who was Trump's mentor and teacher. Epstein showed up in the '80s after Cohn stopped blackmailing.
In the 1946 zombie resurrection of Deepstate, the Soros role was unquestionably filled by Bernard Baruch, always depicted in the media as a humble modest philanthropist. Baruch stopped killing in 1965, then a longer interregnum before Soros took over the position in the '80s. In the '60s there were some semi-Soros types like Allard Lowenstein, but no full equivalent of Baruch and Soros.
I can't see an equivalent for Soros in the first birth under Wilson. JP Morgan basically ran the country from 1870 to 1912, but he was never depicted as a humble philanthropist. Everyone knew he ran the country. He stopped killing in 1913, at the same time when Wilson started the formal Deepstate. Since then the "Morgan Interests" have always owned a large part of the economy, but without total control.
Carnegie fits the philanthropist image. Was he the equivalent? Sherburne Hopkins was in charge of Color Revolutions just before Wilson bought the franchise, but Hopkins wasn't especially rich or famous.
One useful insight already pops out: New monster appears just after old monster expires. Not much overlap, no room for two occupants in the niche.
