Yet, people like Ariail helped CREATE this mess. Don’t forget, this guy is a right wing CONservative. He does NOT attack Mitch McTarball for his refusal to do his job and bring nominees to the floor for an up-or-down vote.
Because of campaign finance disparities, gerrymandering, and other political maneuvers, a shameful proportion of incumbents at all levels of government run unopposed. A cute tactic in some cases is that to retire months before the ends of their terms, then endorse relatives to replace them — then at election time the relative is an technically an incumbent. And thus government offices become an inherited “family business.”
The slide has been greased for a decade by the “media”, and they also have stuffed the basket, or at least distorted public perception to allow it to hold their “infant”.
ferengi19: it’s also notable that Rome was sacked by the “primitive” Vandals, not their more “sophisticated” enemies. Trump appeals to those even more savage, brutal, and primitive for his PRIMARY support. Others are just sucked into the wind created by the intellectual vacuum that is Trumpism.
We got in the basket, hurled ourselves toward the cliff, and now we are having second thoughts as things heat up. We take American Idol voting more seriously.
wolfhoundblues1Does he know where Washington is?.Hen3ry 567Venezuela is not socialist; it is a colony of the CIA. When it was socialist, everyone at least had affordable, if monotonous, food. Now they have a pet junta in Brazil too. What they can’t take over,, they destroy – like most of the middle east. Why do you think we are the only country permitted to have bad leaders?.ferengi19Rome still survives. It is currently the capital of Italy.

We have only ourselves to blame.

We have “representatives” that won the majority of a single digit turnout who claim they are exercising “the will of the people”.

We have had bad presidents in the past and survived, we shall survive again. Rome had really bad emperors and still survived for 900 yrs.

The crazy commie loving orange guy sent American politics down the drain, and you want him to be president?
