Election 2018: Breaking Down the Shell Game of Politics

[ghionjournal.com]

Sometimes I think it's a sin, when I feel like I'm winning when I'm loosing again.

I dunno. It has some merit but Trump is oceans away from any previous politician.

I don't know if it will ultimately be for the worse or the better- although my bet would be on the former, but I am fairly certain that politics have turned a corner and we will not be going back to the status quo this writer described.

I don't see any attempt on the part of Teodrose to suggest any means of returning to a status quo in politics or elections. Only him ridiculing the establishment, " However, from the perspective of the status quo and the establishment, our electoral system is 100% healthy." Trump is the illness/result of the symptoms we've been getting for nearly 5 decades. What is your ideal of status quo? To me that's like, make America great again. When was America great? We have a long history saying we aren't so great. From the times of our very first president, he also, have been giving us warnings of that entity that will always be attempting to destroy any real means of democracy for the benefit of a few. Many of our past presidents have repeated this warning over time. Right up to our last one, Obama. He spoke of it coming in, and just recently at a collage spoke on it after he was out. While coming in he took their money. While in he gave them our money. Now out he mocks us as though we forget what he's done as he gives us a meek warning of those he supposedly went in to fight against. Then made them a part of his administration like all others before him. Those he now rubs shoulders with as he parades around the world filling his bank accounts with their money, our money, as he does speeches and parties with them. My agenda here is to help people understand that the status quo will not change unless we all unite and leave it. Turn our backs on it and unite under a party outside the status quo. My personal preference at this time is the Green Party. Peace.People. Planet.
