>>87035403Because our elections are sold to the highest bidder.
We have a wealthy, corrupt warmonger and a wealthy, incompetent businessman.
Bernie tried to run on sheer gumption, but eventually got intimidated/bought out by the goon squad to toss it in. It's a shame he didn't make a fuss about it, honestly, he really could have changed things. Basically had the DNC dead-to-rights, but I suppose every man has his price.
Can't really blame him, honestly; I can't with 100% certainty say I'd rattle too many cages if there was a good chance of me mysteriously committing suicide after pissing off the wrong people.
