Will Trump Actually Refuse To Leave If He Loses?

Our Democracy in Peril
Notice that the Voice of the CIA/Deep State/Bezos is arguing that the problem with Trump is that he is a bad manager of the state and the empire, which somehow imperials “democracy” (the official euphemism for domestic oligarchic rule and global imperialism). In other words, what they actually […]
Which Is Better For The Progressive Movement? A Trump Or Biden Win?

The dramatic governing changes Democrats could make if they take power
The WaPo, the voice of the CIA/Bezos axis, is more or less advocating that the Democrats use David Faris’ suggestions to create a one-party state like Mexico’s Institutional Revolutionary Party during most of the 20th century. I suspect that if the “right-wing” were completely shut out of any […]

Unity2020 – Ballot access: Can you see it?
The main problem I see with Bret’s idea, aside from the technical issues and sectarian conflict, is that the elected officials are merely managers and the electoral system is merely a front for the oligarchy. Unity 2020 is not entirely dissimilar to the “pan-secessionist meta-party” idea I’ve written […]
A ‘patriotic’ bipartisan presidential ticket determined by a coin flip demands to be taken seriously
As milquetoast as Bret Weinstein’s politics are, his Unity 2020 idea is probably the best one out there at present, as far as anything that is relatively mainstream.

Third Parties Don’t Work: Why and How Egalitarians Should Transform the Democratic Party
I agree with Domhoff’s analysis of the party system, and why third parties can’t win, though I disagree with his solutions. None of the minor parties are qualified to run the state because no one is qualified the state. The purpose of minor parties should be merely propagandistic, […]

Trump Says He Will ‘Negotiate’ Third Term Because He’s ‘Entitled’ To It
The true power elite is likely to say otherwise. Trump’s ego notwithstanding, US presidents are merely managers, not dictators. By Andrew Solender Forbes President Trump said Saturday that he plans to “negotiate” to run again in 2024 if he wins reelection in November, his latest in a series […]

Voters RAKE Trump Over Coals LIVE For Failed COVID Response
Most people prefer safety and security first (see Maslow’s hierarchy of needs) over everything else.

Krystal Ball and Saagar […]
The Liberal Disingenuousness of ‘Trump’s America’
