We are beginning to see the same old assorted US political class douchebags and their henchmen descend upon the TV screens with their smoke and mirrors once again, all in preparation for that ultimate dog-and-pony show called the US presidential elections.
On the Democratic side we have Hillary Clinton, the truest fake if there ever was one. Every time she opens her mouth lies come out, or nonsense babble meant to cover up her past lies and criminal behavior.
On the Republican side we have odious oddities too numerous to mention. The shit list includes creatures such as Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Rick Santorum, and the most perfidious of them all, Jeb Bush, the brother of disgraced failure George W. Bush.
These people have all sold themselves to the devil so many times that I think even he is starting to have buyer’s remorse.
We are hearing the same old crap from these people. Wedge issues like guns, god, and kitschy talking points about ‘American exceptionalism,’ freedom and democracy, saving social security and Medicare, their obsessive fetish with Israel, and lowering taxes are being thrown around like used rubbers.
The same old promises, broken into billions of pieces by their predecessors, are being bandied around by these liars as a carrot over the heads of the naïve retards out there foolish enough to buy this electioneering bullshit.
The Republican side simply depends on the continued willful ignorance of the country bumpkins for their votes, and the dollars of the wealthy elites.
The Democratic side is cleverer. Hillary will talk about ‘helping the average struggling American' and creating jobs, without any hint of irony. It is, after all, filthy politicians like her who plundered the national wealth and gave it to themselves and their wealthy buddies.
So Hillary is going to pull the same trick that Obummer did in 2008. She’ll surround herself with ‘anti-establishment’ campaign advisors. She’ll ally herself with progressive organizations out there that are pro-choice on abortion, organizations that demand a higher minimum wage, for women’s rights, are pro-immigration, etc. And of course, her being a female will also be used to maximum effect.
But let there be no doubt: As happened with Obama, Hillary will exploit all these people to fool the public and drum up votes. If/when she wins the election she’ll quickly shake off all those people like fleas, just like Obummer did.
And just like Obummer, she’ll appoint the same old coterie of scumbag neo-cons, and deluded hawkish liberal interventionists like Victoria Nuland, Zbigniew Brzezinski. These people will cause further global chaos. To this fetid mix she'll add an assortment of crooked pro-Wall Street economic gurus who will further fleece the country for their own benefit.
As part of the act, these politicians will travel the country, go into diners, bowling alleys, factories, and surround themselves with people working minimum wage, old people in retirement homes, minority groups, and by anyone else good enough for a photo-op. But these people will be quickly forgotten after the election is over—unless of course they have deep pockets.
There’s nothing good to be gained by voting for any these people. They won’t fix a damn thing. As the pattern has shown, each president that comes along is definitely worse than the last one. So there’s nothing worthwhile to expect from any of them. All these candidates should come with big warning labels.
So we will have more wars, interventions, bombings, austerity, mediocre economic performance, unemployment, and all the rottenness of Washington DC, untouched.
Vote for these vermin at your own risk.
