Well Hitch, I've thought about your comment even more and I have this to add:
Our political system in America has become completely corrupted and is being used as a weapon against us. Let this sink in, you who crave leadership; the whole system has been weaponized. When you participate in it, you are participating in your own destruction. So go ahead and cheer on Trumpstein, I suppose it does not even matter any more because the die is set and we are on the road to destruction now regardless. Just understand that anyone who is put forth as a candidate for any important position already has a master and it isn't the 'good' of 'our' society that they are working toward. You can add a 'stein' onto any one of their names and it will serve to shed light upon their true nature.
So no....I don't have a solution (anyone with a solution will be immediately eliminated) but it sure as hell irritates me to see such stupidity. If there is a solution, it involves waking up dimwitted people and as I can see here, that is impossible. Perhaps I should just bow out and remove myself from the internet entirely. I may just be a happier person.

DON'T TAKE THE VACCINE!
THE SHIT HAS HIT THE FAN!
I could imagine really bad things if Clinton won. What has happened with the Trump win, libertarians and conservatives unable to meet in public spaces, massive expansion of online censorship of libertarians and conservatives, the unprecedented expansion of Federal debt for 'normal business' that now includes the public locked down in their homes and small business being destroyed, all the propaganda for a new world war and a third of my alt media faves 'growing up' and becoming fake news establishment that pimped the freedom and economy destroying lockdown that may lead to mandatory vaccination and are pushing for world war I could not have imagined.
EE are you familiar with transactional analysis? Do you realize what type of ego state communication style you are using here this last month or so? It could be a brilliant way to troll lefties but here?

EE and Woodman, what I see is a discussion between a realist (EE) and an idealist (Woodman). EE is right, the worst thing that can happen is if the Dems get into office. Woodman, I agree with you as well. The only difference, is you don't have a solution. Just sitting back and not voting, is doing nothing to change things.
Then again doing nothing and letting the liberals win, the only thing good about that...is if the liberals win our country is going down. Big time, in my opinion SHTF. Full on revolution, violence, big cities collapsing, people starving, fighting over cans of beans.
If the Democrats win in the fall, we will be the next Venezuela. The good part about that is we might have a chance to rebuild things better than they are now. LOL, or not, now I'm being the idealist...
life is good.

Things aren't going to be the same if the Democrats win. They will win if people chose not to vote on principal, and I get that, I do.
We will likely have years of SHTF if the Dems win. Stock up and review your preps. If you think the corona virus crap we are dealing with is something, just wait for the Dems....I figure this video is the Dems...Corona virus ain't got shit on me!!

Things are flowing in one direction and that is downhill. Vote, it don't matter. They count the votes. Don't vote, it don't matter. They are still counting votes.
I am a little cynical here. My county has a former felon (drugs and gun) as a the county clerk. He is BLM, progressive, and a party tool. Governor gave him a pardon on the way out the door so he could take his wife's city council seat when she got elected as a state rep. The 2018 anti Trump wave put him into the position to count the votes. This dude has done fucked many things up. Still has his job at the university as a janitor too. He's on "leave for service". Keeps him in the SEIU.
It's all a fucking sham.

If dems run with Bidet, Trump will win. Short term probably an advantage to most honest people, total collapse delayed a year or two. Medium term, Trump et al gets blaimed for collapse, probably worse for honest people. Long term doesnt matter!
Not voting makes sense IMO...
