The elections have been transparent, and close to free for First past the pole. Local elections have been transparent and free to my recollection, with the exception of those disqualified and voter suppression attempts. Unless you are referring 2016 being tampered with by trump. Or 2000 being tampered with by the Supreme Court. Those were clear subversions of the populace’s choice. Or Citizen’s United and SuperPAC decisions+ Supreme Court’s power grabs + making presidents going forward into kings. Ok, except for the death part, you have a point. Wishing death or holding hate will not help you and hasten your end, not mine or America’s.
Fun fact, trump’s been convicted of sex crimes - civil suits so far. It’s not like courts can manufacture charges and dump them all on a person at once. The crimes for election tampering, were for having sex with a porn star and paying to silence the porn star, and colluding with newspapers to run interference+squash stories by buying them.
They actually have to have evidence to charge them with, in places where the crimes are committed. They have to be charged within the statute of limitations. They need to be offered due process or the whole thing is exposed as a complete sham.
We’ll see if they stop treating him with kid gloves for the sentencing, not expecting much.
The whole thing isn’t a sham, there are corrupt portions threatening to engulf more of the system.
The checks and balances still need to be engaged to restore the balance between branches. The corporatocracy needs to be reformed to a republic.
I like how you took the time to address my argument and reply to any of the core points about why you think I’m wrong. Your summary at the end really speaks volumes to your point and why you think everything I’m writing is incorrect. /s Please make an attempt to reply or do more than personally attack my character.
The elections have been free and transparent mostly. I didn’t say fair elections. I didn’t say the right person won or the most popular choice won.
As i noted above, 2000 was definitely decided and counting stopped in a way that favored one party. 2016 - trump did what was needed to avoid kompromat being released and also colluded to keep damaging news stories out of the public eye while running disinformation efforts against competition. 2020 - trump tried to install fake electors, and garner votes from states illegally.
The voter results have been mostly available through request. Historically sites have been set up to track the vote totals against the voter roles supporting my claims of transparency.
We’ve (USA) been in a republic since independence. Democracy only for local elections, and then electing representatives. The country has its downfalls. We could use an update to our voting system to represent the people more to boot.
That’s where the comparison between a felon and a non-felon become salient. The one with felonies actively tried to corrupt the voting system more than once. If the people are expected to buy into the system at all they need to be able to have free, and transparent elections.
The courts also decided that corporations are people, and they can contribute to campaigns like people. The courts also decided that political action committees could take massive amounts of cash and spend it as they want with very little oversight.
The system needs to get its stuff together, its true purpose of serving the aristocracy is showing too much.
The people won’t challenge the status quo, the majority with their bread and circuses.
Speaking of ‘democracy’ or other types of government. Democracy can be perverted quickly, the majority eating all minorities rapidly. Democratic republics seem to have corporations entrenched in them currently, serving the corporation not the person. Been called a corporatocracy i believe. Communism hasn’t survived without being corrupted to date.
There should be a solution that actually works, any ideas?
The Israel vs Palestine genocide has been ongoing for 75+ years. I do not approve, and my approval has never been sought. Election fraud is something that trump claimed was happening in our jurisdiction while committing (and attempting) it in 2016 & 2020.
If we’re talking about war crimes aka continuing the genocide supplies, trump promised to cause more and seek retribution, not peace.
Wishing for death sort of does something for the person holding the hate, it affects them.
It increases their stress levels and stress hormones. It shortens their life.
If you wish to hate and hasten your end, I cannot stop you. If a person acts on that hate, it definitely does something negative to both the recipient and holder of the hate.
I don’t believe trump recovered from covid. Didn’t die though.
