Day 172:
So it looks like everything we thought was true…is:
Oh hey look, Trump and his campaign was in fact working with the Russians to fuck around with the election, and turns out all he wants to do is make money, and all his cabinet want to do is represent the big money interests they represent. Its an oligarchy, a plutocracy, and a kakocracy all in one!
Time to clean house people, we need to vote in a lot of very good people these next elections, the future of this country and this planet are in our hands.
