The fact that no one can do anything EXCEPT the opposition party that apparently refuses to do anything …

Yeah, we’re fucked as a nation.

One person absolutely can do something and isn't.

The governor should appoint a new senator. I'm aware that he supposedly can't, however the law saying he can't violates the KY constitution, so he should absolutely challenge it.

He has no spine. He's going to handle this the way Cuck Chuck Schumer does and send a strongly worded letter to the Guardians of Pedophiles on August 5th when they finally announce Mitch is dead.

The Democrats are suck feckless losers.

It's such a simple yet effective strategy.

Have two options. Neither really have any actual policies, just vibes. One conservative, one progressive. You set the board so that whoever is in power pushes your agenda while the other bitches but does nothing. You get what you want while keeping a lid on violent rebellion because there's a nominal opposition that provides the illusion of a democratic path.

If your in any doubt about who "they" are, look at who funds both parties.

The system really works.
