@Olivier5,
Hamilton Nolan is the classic idealist turned bitter cynic, including the influence of his failure to reach the lofty heights predicted by his outsized self-regard on the depth and reach of his cynicism.
He is also yet another revolutionary dilettante who considers himself a herald of the people's forthcoming glorious and violent uprising, but who will never man the barricades. His job will be to write the fiery pamphlets (filled with obscenities to signal his authenticity), that inspire idealistic idiots, who have not yet soured, to take his place in the ranks and be the first to die before the fusillade of the tyrant's mercenaries.
If he does muster up the courage to fight
The Power, it will be within the comforting safety of a small, righteously angry mob driving a notable Trump supporter and her husband from a restaurant in Tribeca.
However...
At least he's not the sort of faux-leftist hypocrite who finds no problem with the obvious corruption exemplified by Uncle Joe Biden and his troubled (but filthy rich) second son Hunter.
