I wished more people recognized this. Yes, the Republicans are cheating but we know the Democrats did too and nothing happened. We need to realize that companies run this company. Us vs Them or RED vs BLUE is just to distract us from this fact while we get fleeced and so we have "an enemy" to blame for all of our ills. Most of the big companies and individuals put money into both sides of the equation. They don't actually care who wins. They will leverage that $1M donation into $5B in contracts on threat of only backing the challenger in the next cycle.

Trump is a really good distraction for tptb. There is certainly a lot of circus and also a lot of bread (fast food). So when people argue over Trump they can loot everybody's money in peace. One trillion in new debt next year [1] to be paid by the US tax payers. Glad I'm not one of them.
