your cousin. And there are millions just like him that literally don't know what they are doing when they vote than falling for high-pressure advertising, psyops and hate media. It's a fucken shame, but I really think they have brought the US into some very dark days and I have no sympathy for them, because the future of my life. as with millions and millions, will likely be ruined too.

And after the supreme count nominations and wins down the road, it will probably be decades before the US starts to resemble what it once was if ever again.

FFS, does you cousin even realize he has enabled the hugest billionaire insider establishment into the WH ever witnessed in the US. And, he has brought in extreme war hawks. WTF, did your cousin think they were just like the billionaire establishment.

Clue your cousin in, they are LOSERS in this establishment, seen as dog shit or worse by the new highly powered billionaire elite. You cousin was used for his vote, seen as damn ignorant fools, and they will likely suffer significantly like the rest of us into some damn dystopian society.

Bully for you that you can afford lessons. Some of us may die in the process robbedvoter Dec 2016 #117

Your rant would mean something if we actually had a choice. Since we don't it's meaningless. nt stevenleser Dec 2016 #120
