    They just elected a new swamp.

    If you think a bunch of billionaires should run the US government -- you just got what you asked for.
    Given you are given such few choices and your unwillingness to take them. Keep expecting more of the same. A bunch of billionaires running the US government so you just got what you voted for. Or do you believe those billionaires give money without strings attached?

    If so I have a bridge for sale.

      The half that does vote depends on mass media to make their decision...the better message you can put out on media, the better chance you will have...it's an advertisers mantra.

      With the money that is involved currently in the US election process, you will only get to see candidates that have a money machine...that is what this country "runs on" right now

      The people supplying the money will be the deciders...not conspiracy theories or magic...it's just a fact right now. And it won't change ever...no matter how many people say they are going to "drain the swamp" or run the lobbyists out of town...ALL candidates depend on that money - it's a basic need in a republic (The US is not and never has been a democracy no matter what you were taught in grade school)


      Until voters get more involved this will continue. If the half who don't vote. vote for the Green Party, it would force Dems and Reps to sit up and listen to the people. Even voting for Sanders would have scared the billionaires. Who Barry thinks aren't running the country.
