I fear that no matter who is elected, or, I believe, more accurately, selected, things will get worse for most Americans and for folks in the rest of the world. In 2012 an academic study learned that no matter who is president, and despite the will of the people, the will of the sociopathic oligarchs will prevail. I believe that is even more true today. I also believe that presidential election campaigns too often serve as a distraction, trusting that one candidate or other will actually work to improve our lives. Therefore, divide and conquer prevails, and very little independent thinking and/or organizing take place.

I don't argue with Trump haters. I simply say, you're not going to like Communism, if you survive their wholesale slaughter to depopulate the world to what they consider a manageable level.
