Relatively sure that Leo's sarcasm doesn't shape Bloble's opinions.
I mean, the part about this that worries me most is that this makes me believe that people really would choose a botanist as their surgeon over an actual trained medical doctor because they believe doctors are greedy and corrupt.
I don't pretend not to understand the corruption complaint, but I still would rather the guy who knows what he's doing work on me.
I'm not just referring to the general election here, the primaries were like this too

I don't, I know Hilary is as shrewd and political as they come, but you are also working on a lot of heresay with minimal facts, trying to make an argument that a possible puppet president of a party that has about as much leadership credibility as Captain Ginyu is somehow better.
It's apathy and unreasonable reactions that caused this, not racism. I don't think Trump supporters or people who didn't are *insert buzzword here*, I don't believe in generalization.
burn your dread you coward
But megas, his great brain can apply the rules of business to governing!
There are a shitton of meme pages on facebook congratulating their followers on the Trump victory
It feels oddly like some sort of cult celebration
Has Amon hacked the khala
Are the memes really on our side
Maybe America needs to rethink vote education if a few controversial humor pages can cause people to vote for such gnawty ensembles as Harambe and hugh Mungus
Sure, I've talked with them. But you know me, I most often look for the best in people, and a lot of them are perfectly reasonable people, not bigots, not racists, decent people.
Which is why it baffles me further when I hear the reasoning that he would provide anything at all but bluster from reasonable people. I don't view them as aliens or some strange other creature.
Usually that's the case, but you have to ask yourself how many times a group can't deliver before you decide to stop listening and go with the alternative. This has been the crutch they've been relying on for decades. "Sure, we aren't any good, but we know what we're doing, even though what we're doing is exactly the thing you don't want." A more accurate analogy would be you pay a supposedly competent but corrupt doctor to do something, but they just take your money and give you an excuse and promise that it'll be different, next time. Repeat ten times.
Regarding corruption, there's two layers: personal and systematic. On the personal layer, Hillary's got a slew of her own issues to worry about: FBI investigation, emails, Clinton Foundation, Goldman Sachs, Wall Street, etc. On the systematic level, you have institutions arrayed against the public's wishes on pretty much every issue they care about, buying out politicians and making sure the institutions are satisfied. Illegal immigration is a good example, with there being strong opposition to it but that somehow transforming into the exact opposite, amnesty, every time. Anyone who tries to oppose it gets buried under a mountain of pressure from Democrats who want their votes, Republicans who want to give easy labor to big business, and so forth.
It's the systematic corruption that Trump was uniquely positioned to fight against. He's rich enough to shrug off the typical attempts to kneecap challengers. He's stubborn and brash enough that the typical shaming tactics don't work. And he's media savvy enough that he can control the conversation when the media turns on him (that was the ideal, anyway). Everyone else either agrees with the establishment on issues like this (Jeb, Rubio) or wants to fight them but can't (Cruz) because they need the support from those very instutitions to do anything.
So yeah, he's rough, but if you're getting someone from outside the establishment, that's to be expected. Anyone who fits a conventional mold wouldn't be warring against it.
He never sleeps. He never dies.
Battle doesn't need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don't ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don't ask why I fight.
To be honest, i'm just glad the world dodged the Syrian No-Fly Zone bullet
ahahaha yeah what a bullet we dodged
