Very on edge about that. yeah. if we somehow dont have any conflicts with other nations, which i doubt, then we will continue to see great inequality. and it wont matter who our next president is. they will try to put the person they want again. they will get a yes man, someone that is very similar to obama, bush, or clinton.

Distortedreasoning Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 ah ok. i can pretty much say anyone in the democrat or republican party is someone we dont want. remember that obama was really smart but pretty much just continued many of the same policies from bush. and trump is continuing many of the same policies. i mean he's outright attacking everyone, but end result is the same.

Idk, I keep voting because people have to keep working to demand change. The finish line for equality has always been miles away from the people. But progress is slow, and things have changed, like women's right's, and civil rights. Yes it sucks that we have to keep fighting for our rights, but its better than doing nothing. I think maybe people will start talking to each other as people again once they realize the facebook world is a pit that isolates people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is kinda funny. No, it feels more like Regan mixed with Bush Jr. at this point. After the latest set of warmongering appointees and reauthorization of the Patriot Act which is almost definitely going to be abused again, it's only a matter of time. If anything the scandals are more akin to Bill Clinton's less than savory conduct raping women, though Trump is so old at this point I doubt he's doing it in the Oval Office. This all seems to be women from years before he was ever thinking of running. Edited March 24, 2018 by Sandstone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, one way in which the Trump presidency is unlike the Nixon one- when Nixon was under investigation and fired swaths of people, it was called the Saturday Night Massacre and led to his resigning. Under Trump, that happens every Friday. Also, Nixon wanted the US to have a socialized healthcare system like the rest of the developed world was adopting at the time. Shows you how far right the government has shifted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
