I don't fucking get it. I seriously fail to see how past events have lead us to be so complacent. I just want an answer but I know we won't ever get a good one. A single scandal used to have the power to make an official resign, how the hell have we gotten here?
He will make rich people richer.
Those people control every aspect of what a large portion of the population see and hear from the moment they wake up to the moment they go to sleep.
Never in human history has a power that immense being controlled by the greediest and most corrupt group of our population.
It is inevitable that someone like him will be in control sooner (maybe in a couple weeks) or later. We're at the bottom of the mountain watching a few boulders come down as the rest of the avalanche is roaring down the mountain.
Even if he loses (unlikely) they won't stop because stopping isn't an option.
Greed and Corruption. That's all it is. There's no other reason necessary.
I hope that helps you understand what's going on a bit better. You won't like it, no rational person does, but it's the facts.
In the face of inevitably I guess all you can ask is why. I hope this ends well
To me it's more like this:
We all saw the brick wall coming. The psycho driving the bus refuses to turn. Now it's too late so we're all screaming and bracing for the impact.
Some of us hope we survive. Some hope we don't because survivors are going to be disfigured and crippled at best.
Some of us are angry that half the bus was manipulated into letting the psycho drive.
The psycho is laughing because they don't care who they hurt and they're having the time of their life.
And the story is illustrated by Mo Williams, and it's titled: 'Dont let the Psycho drive the Bus'
But like most childrens book; adults forgot the lessons.
Trump does not admit defeat. He never has, he never will. Anyone could have done this at any time, it just took someone shameless enough to try.
Lack of competition.
