    Wait until Trump gets into office and becomes a dictator “on day one only.” This will be legal.

      Isn’t it legal now? Did the US government nullify any Boeing contracts because of the first murder? Any of the Boeing heads and their government stooges in prison?

          I agree, and strongly believe that the most helpful way forward in this respect would be to implement ranked choice voting, which is just about as out-of-reach to most Americans as a viable third-party candidate is today.

          Maybe the next try at democracy will be the one that sticks.

                  Because she is the candidate of the largest party representing policies you “support” like universal healthcare. You could have spent the last 4 years helping build the party, or another party, or making your own party but instead did nothing.

                    Dude, I’m seriously ill. I don’t eat solid food. I just got back from the Mayo Clinic. I can’t walk the dogs without getting worn out.

                    This is not my job. I can’t even hold a regular job.

                    You absolutely can. By voting for someone who has no chance of winning. It’s purely a thing to make you feel good about yourself. And no one will know either. You could claim you voted for Cornel West but actually vote for Trump and no one will be able to say you were lying.

                    I’m never going to get what I want, so I vote pragmatically. And stopping the guy who literally says he’s going to be a dictator seems like a pretty fucking important thing to do.

      Doubt it. He couldn’t do it in his first term why the fuck would he suddenly be able to make it happen the second term? He’s a pile of shit but he wouldn’t ever make it happen.

        Despite the downvotes, you’re probably right. Not because they won’t try, but because they’re not smart enough to pull it off.

        They will do monumental damage in the process of trying, though.
