    The problem with the idea of burning it all to the ground and starting over is that’s exactly the Republican plan. Destroy so many institutions and cultural beliefs that there’s nothing left to stop them. Meanwhile Democrats are writing a strongly worded letter to the person swinging the sledgehammer.

    The better plan would be to fix what’s broken, I admit it may be too late though.

      If the rest of America is going to let it happen then again that’s what they deserve

        You are horrible for wishing this on us when the majority of us didn’t vote for this and never have voted for this. Your ignorance is embarrassing.

          You’ve had how many years to fix this bullshit. Your methods have only produced failure and further enshtification. Now you gave the world another Hitler.

          That’s on the masses who don’t vote

          Who bury their head in the sand and say I’m not into politics.

          Enough is enough

          I never wanted it to go this way but your country has failed at every opportunity to hold your leaders accountable.

          Yes it’s horrible

          But when less than 35% of you bother to do your fucking job (voting) then this is what you get after decades of it.

          You have only yourselves to blame and I’ve heard many of you say as much.

          Take responsibility finally or accept your fate.

          My own country isn’t innocent either in our own bullshit

      Well the USians have always been content to limp on a broken system, impotent to change it to a modern democracy. It’s not something that happened overnight or something we can blame ‘the Democrats’ for. It’s a failure of the people
