You put the equivalent of mobsters in the White House and suddenly these checks don’t matter. As a country we fucked around and found out.

Seriously I tried warning people but they were certain that our existing laws would hold up. It’s heartbreaking.

So it’s like your average American doesn’t believe this is even a possibility regardless as to what they have said.

There are a lot of reasons for this. Many of us did see it coming. However, we have all still been culturally brainwashed to think that our government has too many checks for things to get this far out of hand.

How is any of this “chosen” when everything is gerrymandered and rigged?

Our biggest fault was being the frog who stayed in the water while it was heating up. We have just slowly been giving up freedoms with a little fuss but not enough to matter. We need to learn to say no firmly and with conviction.
