Post-Election Disorder

Trump rigged the election!

Putin helped him!

Russia hacked DNC servers and voting machines!

Hillary got more votes!

Recount now!

Fix the corrupt election system!

Yeah, yeah, blah…blah…blah…

You know what? Considering the fact that the electoral system in the US is institutionally rigged and unfair from the get-go, it makes no sense accusing foreign powers of ‘rigging’ the vote in favor of one particular candidate. The rigging has already been accomplished by antiquated laws dating back to the 19th century, by the intricate maze of political operatives from both parties, and the unspoken status-quo agreement between the powers-that-be.

Frankly, it’s hard to really know what happened. Did Billary really win? Did she or Trump, or maybe even both, try to rig the elections in their own favor in certain places? We’ll probably never find this out, and it’s not even worth trying.

Plus, what is the deal behind these recounts? Is it an honest attempt to expose the broken US electoral system, or the work of desperate Democratic Party officials and their corporate, pro-war, neo-con allies to give the election to Billary at the last moment through the back-door? Is it just a desperate ruse by the elite to scare Trump into doing what they want, instead of following his own agenda?

Personally, I think that all this election rigmarole is nothing but a big setup; a spectacular con. Trump was chosen to be president beforehand, and the democrats all knew it. There was a secret agreement that he’d win, and this entire anti-Trump nuttery was just for show, to divide and fire up people to support a candidate that looked different, but is on the same page as Billary.

Do people really think that the powers-that-be would actually allow Trump to win if he truly threatened their interests? It would be naïve and foolish to do so.

I shall think this until I see, hear, and experience otherwise. Trump’s action after January 21, 2017 shall prove me right or wrong.

It all goes back to the essay from a few years ago that I wrote about the closed circle of interests that each nation lives within, and how the borders of that circle cannot be breached because that would mean a revolution; a collapse of the current system, and along with it the wealth and power of the elites who control that system and profit from it.

What Trump may do is make some changes that will take him to the edges of that circle, but he will never go beyond its borders because that would spell doom for him and his family’s interests, among many others. So we shouldn’t expect much change out of Trump.

The USA is a crumbling country. It is losing ground on all fronts-political, economic, diplomatic, strategic, and military. Yes, it puts up a good front with a lot of PR, slick marketing, and twisting of its vassals arms, but it is a country that is rotting from the inside out. This situation is the USA’s own doing; not Russia’s, Putin’s, North Korea’s or Iran’s.

So it makes no sense to despair, because whether Trump comes in and actually stops the war-mongering and violence, cooperates with other nations, and restores US prestige, or if he is an even worse bully and freak than Obama and makes everything worse, either way the US is going to lose its power and influence; only the way it does so remains to be seen.

But regardless of the way that the US regime chooses to fade into the sunset, its downfall, or downgrade, can only be a good thing for the world.
