Trump Is Going To Repeat This Until November 2020. Thanks, MSNBC.

[caitlinjohnstone.com]

(This should be the end of the Democratic party. This dismal state of affairs is their fault, from the content of the leaked emails to their handling of it. They have had choices on the way to clean up their act but, they have blankly refused at every juncture. Not one thing has changed since the emails revealed that the DNC rigs its primaries, and yet here we are in the middle of another fake primary with everyone going along with it like it's a real thing. It's weird. In a healthy democratic republic the party would be dead already, and a new one would've taken its place fueled by fresh energy and enthusiasm but the donor-class corruption is so deeply entrenched that that possibility has seemed like a fantasy.)

There are a number of good highlights in this, but this one pretty much wraps it up. Although I did like the Maddow and Mate comment, a lot! It essentially shows the conditioning effect from 2 years of perception management which many are engulfed in a manufactured illusion. I'm already seeing spin and can't wait to hear how NPR spins this today.

I did however notice the reports is still claiming that the Russians hacked the DNC. So I guess the DNC gets away with one here that it's supporters can cling on to. Anything to keep the sheep in line and from leaving the party.

I guess I had hoped for better or more from the Mueller report.
I had hoped for more or better from the dems.
I feel very much like I did in 11/2016 when trump won.
I just do not understand how so many can see the corruption and act like everything is normal.
Just remember Capone went to jail for tax evasion - not one murder charge or corruption charge for bootleg activity.
No one in Russia have ever been charged for the poisonings.
The murder in the Turkish embassy.
There are many many crimes that go unpunished for lack of hard evidence.
None of the report changes the fact trump is a liar.
I do not have a TV.
America could do the world a favor and stop watching ALL TV news.
Nothing has changed my stance that trump and big money are in control of America and it is NOT in any way good or healthy.

I see a strange mix of things today about our political parties and it disturbs me greatly.

I see a DNC that is confused and not sure which way it wants to go. Democratic Socialism is being embraced but yet ignored by many. Apology being made when there should be none, and the right will use this in comparing the old "socialism next to communism" ideas. Nobody is speaking up so this will most likely work for them. The DNC cannot even address it's division. They have no backbone.

I see a strongly compromised GOP that has been infiltrated and taken over by the Koch brothers, Mercers, and others of that persuasion and it all has to do with money. Nobody in the current party gives a damn about you, your healthcare, land, water, or food. We are led to believe this is the way our Founding Fathers would have wanted it and the deluded go along with that idea. The GOP works against the people and to give wealth to the top 1 percent at any cost. The goal appears to be to make you think it should be this way and to make you like it. (I'm one who don't.)

Libertarians and Independents can be a mix of the above or anything else they want to be. They might push for dog catchers to have a degree or for a man on Mars by 2025 but chances or being elected are slim to say the least.

This is my take on how things are right now along with a reflection on our bleak future.
