It‘s so weird man. They say the government needs fixing but then vote for unhinged deregulation from the guy with the catch phrase „you‘re fired“.

That‘s like saying your roof needs fixing so you call a demolition company to tear your house down. What the hell did you expect would happen?

Honestly I think so many people are too misinformed or distracted to vote. I would genuinely suggest they stay out of the democratic process for their own good and peace of mind. They will only regret it anyway.

We have an electoral college. The entire reason they exist was to prevent an uneducated electorate from electing a tyanical demagogue. And yet here we are. Because the electoral college is made out of THE SAME UNEDUCATED MASSES. How was that supposed to work?
