    We’ll still have “elections”

    You know, like in Russia.

    To be fair, it does pair nicely with our millions of Evangelical “Christians” that treat every day like Bible opposite day.

      How does the saying go, “if conservatives think that they cannot win democratically, the will not abandon conservatism, they will abandon democracy”? I guess now we get to see if it works in reverse, and winning democratically makes them lose their appetite for changing the election system. Probably not, but one cant mentally concede future elections before they even get cancelled, that just lets them get away with it without so much as an outrage.

    After three decades of pointless voting I’m getting really close to apathy. Like if it was more than a few minutes of my time I wouldn’t put it towards the party that still wants to cozy up to Republicans like Cheney and refuses to actually support progressive causes while the party I have been voting agsinst keeps winning.

    It is fucking futile and this country deserves Trump because he respresents who we really are, a bunch of racist, sexist, xenophobic pieces of shit who love to brag about how awesome we are. The few that are decent people are drowned out by the masses.
