Outstanding recaps and insights. Thank you for a different perspective which provokes thought and alternate consideration on what is occurring politically in today’s world.

None of us fit perfectly in either of the two major parties. Its true that we pick the one closest to our values. It is too bad that elected officials fail to live up to thise ideals so very often.

STOP HATING BLUE OR RED,

Tooberville and Mace represent the worst of the worst in Washington. The absolute worst was Gosar from AZ.

„The creeping suspicion that everyone in office is more interested in power than policy.“

„We tell ourselves we’re choosing the lesser of two evils, even though that framing itself reveals the rot: Why is evil our baseline?“

Thank you, exactly the same thing is happening in Europe too, even though, we have a multi-party system. 🥴

EXACTLY post is what Bernie Sanders WAS (in 2015 and now again) up against ...In 2015 the DNC killed Bernie for many reasons... WALL STREET is but the most important:

so DNC keep losing the youth (see Rick Wilson's sdvice to DNC donor class on free advice ($20M to you dinors) elections, your base but keep those profits up as WALL STREET and associated actors (crooks( legal crooks) such as lawyers, judges, mayors, accountants, financial advisors, and many others needs those profits up. So keep on watching those employer funded investments go down down the drain. Drain where you ask 🤔 to the very things I have mentioned and many others.
