Donald Trump thinks there should be rating boards for movies and video games.

Sometimes i think the US people dont vote for a "Good" or "Bad" option, they vote for a "Bad" or "Worst" option...
The damn Venezuelan is right. I am sad actually.

But yes~ that's usually the case. Only because we can't get any good people to run for office. Only money hoarders, and creepy old women.

Most people, at least in the last 3 elections, seem to be voting out of pure spite of the other side and just to piss them off with very few actually voting for who they think is truly the better candidate, even forgoing independent candidates that they agree with entirely. Another small group is voting for the "lesser of two evils" which is also completely stupid.

2 party system is an abomination and should just be abolished and made illegal.

It was a conman versus a mostly-competent bureaucrat, people definitely chose wrong. There were several factors that went into Trump's win, however, not least of which were Russia's role and Comey's violation of the Hatch Act. Only 80,000 votes in three states were necessary to swing the general, and there are plenty of reasons now to believe that 2016 was America's first illegitimate/sham presidential election. Our intelligence agencies know it too, they simply don't want to state it in those terms because it would cause riots and chaos.
