      And yet no, they really aren’t. The criminal charges are not something most of his contemporaries are facing.

      Are you fucking kidding me? Jesus, every day I lose more and more hope in our citizens.

          congress is a full of utter scum. they just expelled poorer and less successful guy - seriously qui bono?
          im not not the only one who thinks that - congress approval is at 15 %

          This isn’t a fucking wrestling show. What happens in there has very real, very deep ramifications for everyday working people out here. Your contempt isn’t protest or positive political action and only serves to minimize the effort, blood, sweat, and tears of people putting in the hard work to organize and mobilize in order to help their constituents and communities. If you don’t like how things are then either get out there and fucking do the work to help us change it for the better or sit the fuck down and stop trying to be an irl 4chan edgelord.

              And this guy lying to those working people, about even his most basic information, to get into power at any and all cost, stealing their right to make an informed decision and setting a precedent for anyone to do the same if he is allowed to remain in his office, somehow proves he cares about them more… how?

      This guy, given his proven baseline morals, would’ve become one of the worst in terms of corruption.

          My point is how much he lied about himself, misled his own voters, I don’t see how he would’ve been less corrupt given a bit time. I’m pretty sure it generally holds that a new comer is less corrupt than when he/she is an old timer.
