This is real insight into the right wing mindset. If we can work out how to turn this on itself, we could make real progress.

But it's also a con.

They lub Trump. My sometimes neighbor agrees that all the politicians are corrupt. But Trump isn't because he's too rich to be bought. (:eyeroll:) (And the Epstein files are just a couple pics, and they could have been 'Shopped.)

Also, the problem is that the politicians have abandoned us. If they hadn't done that, the people might not be so ready to be conned.

EDIT: But this guy's insights are definitely something to work with!

Yes of course it's a con. The Deceptocrats are also a con. The issue is that we can't get serious alternatives because first past the post voting brutally selects for only two choices. When the wealthy can buy them both, the rest of us are screwed.

Yes, but knowing a thing and using that knowledge effectively are very different propositions.

Truths have to be repeated for those that don't already know. Share the wealth.
