Abolish democracy. One party system.

The US has been a one party system for decades: the party of rich old tax cheats.

Traditional GOP and democrats are just two slightly different flavors. And now MAGA is a third, more distinct flavor - the flavor of shit due to all the brown-nosing. But it's still all a bunch of rich MAGA fucks in Washington.

No sir. The US is a two party system with sub-factions in the mix. Democracy elected dictator Trump. Who would have thought that giving the right to vote to conspiratorial, superstitious, misinformed, partisan, victimized people would be so desperate to vote for such people like Donald Trump, and Bernie Sanders. The US is the richest country in the world. If you earn 65K a year, you are part of the global 1 percent. I want moar... Why do you think migrants skip all the other countries to come to the US. Their countries suck and the Yankee country is the best thing they see on the map by far. Look at what is going on in Western Europe. They have even more political parties. Granted, there are problems to be fixed, but Western democracy does not work, because it is anti-meritocratic. Do you want Joe Six Pack doing open-heart surgery on you? That's democracy. Look at Trump. He knows everything. Follow your democratically elected leader who does things without consulting people. He has his belief system.

Nope. Guillotines take care of current Trumps.
