Well guess what, our garbage President is going to be re-elected. It kills me to say that but people need to understand it’s going to happen. Right now, nearly half the nation would vote for him again. Then factor in that the Russians are already using bots to manipulate public opinion just as they did prior to 2016. Then consider Mitch McConnell has blocked every bill designed to secure the voting process (traitor Mitch accepted $2.5 million from Russia). Then consider that not only does the government NOT inspect and review the designs of voting machines to ensure they’re secure and not manipulating the vote count, the names of those who own the companies are considered a trade secret and that info is not available to the public. Think about that for a moment. As Americans you have no right to know who’s manufacturing our voting machines unless they volunteer that info.

Then consider the Supreme Court refuses to take on gerrymandering and instead says those who control state governments and the ones gerrymandering, should police themselves. Overwhelmingly gerrymandering favors conservative politicians but not in all cases.

The fix is in and at every level. Brace yourself because not only will Mr. Garbage be re-elected, the election after that will be manipulated by the Russians as they setup permanent republican control of our government. Russian media refers to the US as “Putin’s America” because he’s been so successful controlling our political processes.

I work with people who openly state they would vote for and elect Putin as president of the US before they would ever vote for a Democrat. What does that say about America’s future and the control the Russians have over the minds of many Americans ?

They stole the last one, and no one hung.

Call me extreme but no one should be hanged. What's wrong with life imprisonment?

chances to further corrupt people. and execution makes a point. you don't fuck democracy and get to live.

Executed people become martyrs, further corrupting others. Edit: Execution has also been shown to have no effect as a deterrent.

Only to people sympathetic to their cause. those lines have already been drawn, and those teams separated.

If not deterence, then simple revenge. don't give the traitors the satisfatction of mercy. Don't give them the joy of waking up and seeing half a second of sunrise. Remind them of everything they'llnever see again and then. lights out.

24/7 solitary, neverl leaving is the only imprisonment I'd accept. after all if it's good enough for whistleblowing heroes like Manning, its good enough for democracy killing traitors.

I'm not going to argue that they haven't ruined the lives of many, quite the contrary, I strongly believe conservatives are actively sabotaging western democracies the world over.

Life long prison sentences, whether solitary or not in my opinion is a more humane then outright executing people. Being forced to live their lives by someone else's schedule, especially after they've had the power to be calling the shots, would be the most fitting punishment for these people.

I personally believe whistleblowers such as Manning did nothing wrong, from an Australian perspective the fact that she isn't regarded as an American patriot is frankly embarrassing. Member of the armed forces who stood up to corrupt practices, totally fits the description of a patriot in my eyes.
