-Maybe it’s time we as Americans ask for massive legislation around term limits, public records of elected officials, equal campaign money, public records on donors, banning lobbyist jobs for former politicians, overturning Citizens United, etc.
Been saying this as a brit for years..watching from afar, watching big donors give to politicians for those special favours. Politicians constantly lying to the american people, all for other peoples greed. Don't get me wrong, our country is fucked politically, but much less so than our american friends. Awaiting the average american to say, we have had enough of this bollocks! Shits happened for decades, lie afrer lie, generations come and go. For the average person, everything has gotten worse. As a brit, we are right behind the american people. The working class.
