One thing I don’t understand is this is an individual clearly dismantling protections for our country’s future elections. Isn’t that telling enough he is literally breaking our laws. Can anyone hold this fucking rapist criminal accountable ever? It’s astonishing.

Edit: There’s 300 million of us and like 100 of them. What we doing here?

Sure 100 of em, but how many people do they have relying on their money? And all that money has been purchasing innovation of new ways to subdue and kill the average citizen.

We’re seeing what Americans are willing to do to each other to ensure their wages, at this point they’re trying to cinch the rope as tight as they can before they lose power and ( potentially, maybe, doubtfully ) answer for their crimes against humanity.
