I hate that man SO much.
Slowest pitch in American history (except maybe Hilary who just HAD to rig the DNC and legitimize Trump) and he is still hellbent on losing.
Is that enough time to vote in some Dems who will stop it?
Sadly, the 5 dems I would have voted for are all hanging back and letting the rest of the Dems shut them out.
Time to make another run at ending the 2 party system.
It will hurt, but when you let it stay 51/49, everything rapidly goes right.
Also, I would imagine the military contractors have already pocketed the 18 billion that was moved from public trust to Israel to the contractor.
If the deal were cancelled, that's another 18 billion out of the public trust refunded to Israel to buy something else from the military contractors.
The two major national parties are rushing rightward no matter what you do. Best I've come up with is moving to a state where the controlling party is as left as possible.
The only way out is through. Best case scenario I believe we can expect is patchwork fascism across the country, so choose your enclave wisely. After things really collapse, and after the fighting is settled, we can do our best to set things right. But as long as we are going to be shackled to the whims of previous generations going back to the 18th century, actual progress is a dream.
The foxes have run the henhouse since the late 70s, and they're not about to give it up.
