  1. How does this analysis not perfectly describe America? The parties choose who you will vote for, the parties run the caucus and the whole shebang. The gov continuously ignores facts when convenient. And the whole Russian influence on elections is so overblown, to say that they are transmitting anything to an audience that is significant in any way is asinine. The reach was miniscule and the data breach has been shown to be local IE downloaded from the source, so in effect the highest amount of fake anything is coming from local sources. Not to give Putin or Russia a free pass but when was the last time Noam Chomsky or the like was on CNN or MSNBC? Last I checked, his platforms were limited to Democracy Now and RT...and who is fascist?

  3. lol Trump is the perfect "man of the people". Read some machiavelli. Even the Dems have no problem signing heinous legislation they should be opposed too. They belittle him in public and then go along for the ride lol. His vision is theirs and their sponsors, they have more in common than you may think. Trump is the very sort that would lobby congress for favorable changes, now hw is in charge.Power is in the same hands as always.

  4. Really? It was a real short comment, not hard to do especially if you had already decided to comment...then again you would have to lie.

  5. He might not be a talking head but that's not the reason, there are others that never make it in front of the camera.
