#1 Isn’t it interesting that the people who were claiming in 2016 that Trump will wreck the economy and get us into WWIII are the same people who have wrecked the economy and are getting us into WWIII.

#7 Still a Republic, but more in the late Roman Republic sort of way. The powerful men make sure they get what they want and fuck everyone else. In Rome, the people that opposed them were beaten to death by the Senate mob and tossed in the river. Nowdays they are destroyed on social media and the DOJ.

#8 09.17.1787 - "A republic, if you can keep it."

Good sirs, the problem is not Trump, it is what follows Trump. After all he has only 4 years.

#12 The answer is to make it really hard for them to fake it — vote in person, volunteer as a poll watcher, help with True The Vote or whatever voter-rolls cleansing group is active in your area, drive other Republicans/conservatives to the polls who would otherwise not bother...

#13 This year I will be doing a voter registration drive at the cemetery like dems do.

#15 Actually a pres can serve 10. Remember that’s how many LBJ would’ve served of he’d run and won
