“Two Faces of American Capitalism”: Juan González on What the RNC & DNC Reveal About U.S. Politics
(www.democracynow.org)
The way I see it, the whole exercise is just vulgar.
Everyone already knew Trump and Harris were the nominees, and yet, we saw the parties using your campaign contributions to pay for celebrity appearances from Kid Rock, Hulk Hogan, Lil Jon, and others.
The parties partied, plain and simple, and everyone seems to have forgotten that Donald Trump and Bill Clinton were pals of notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
And all Democrats want to talk about is how joyful they are and how weird Republicans are for the same reason Kamala Harris and Joe Biden don't have any policy positions outlined on their websites: people are poorer now than they were in 2020 and they are struggling to survive in this country. No matter how much lipstick you put on this pig, that's going to be a massive hurdle to try and clear in November.
If you aren't already, don't donate money to Republicans or Democrats. Put it in your investments instead or support your friends' mutual aid requests. At least that way you'll get some form of representation at the federal level.
