    Can we not just repost Trump's tweets without analysis? What's the point?

    It's because our two parties are corrupt and work for moneyed interests over the interests of the people of America.

    Cheaper for who?

    If this happens, the Dems will just replace it when they win the senate and whitehouse

    Yes, he is. Its raising red flags. But, there isn't much that can be done about it as the morally bankrupt republicans control the senate. The only way to stop him is the greatest showing of voters in history this election. Trump has to be beaten so bad, not even his friends in the SC can say anything.

    The thing is we need people to vote in person. I could see Trump's SC voting that all mail in ballots due to the coronavirus are illegal and invalid. Since more republicans vote in person Trump would win.

    That or Trump will try to have states with republican controlled legislatures send alternate electors should Trump lose their state, and give their electoral votes to Trump anyway. I am sure a SC with Barrett added would find this to be ok.

    I've got a technician, in dialysis, who actually recently graduated from medical school, who is Samoan. He informed me that the Rock is Samoan and that all Samoans are very proud of the Rock.

    Disagree, you replace a deep and narrow hierarchical selection process with a shallow and wide one will not make things better, it will likely make them worse with a lot more power to fringe groups. We have seen it before in other countries.

    If you want to fix the election and government in the us, you need term limits all around and remove the electoral vote allowing for minority rule.this is where the concentration of power happens.

    Take the corruption out of our two parties that America currently has, and America should run the way it was intended to run in the first place, imo.


    That is a start. There was a thread a while back on a fix to our government by changing our voting system, if I remember correctly. It sounded interesting, and the one city/state it was used here in the U.S. seemed to show that it works well for the people.

    Draining both parties swamps by removing the corporate money that fuels both parties campaigns would be a must in any fix.

    Term limits is the first step to do that.

    You can not completely take the money out of politics, business is an integral part of the economy and politics and economy are intertwined - but I agree that better finance restrictions on lobbying are a good idea, I am not sure how to do that in a smart way, but I am sure there is a better way of doing it than the way it is done now, maybe limits on lobby payments, corporate contributions etc...

    I think I'll vote for the one that does NOT grab woman by the pussy...... calls torch carrying Nazis "good people" and disrespects people that die for their country. That's enough for me to vote FOR somebody.

    I like candidates that don't get caught not paying their taxes and have to cheat their way through an audit.

    He's able to negotiate great deals for nations...especially ones where the other nation actually improves their part of the deal and he makes it look like he did a great thing for us.
