So much crap. Just trying to share my personal take. These are my opinions and I would never ask a fellow American to be in lock step with me.
Politics in the US is a high paying job. You just can’t see where the paychecks are coming from until new laws crush us.

My thought is that we need to push for legislators (note I didn’t say legislation, because you need to have people in place with a damned backbone, first) to promote campaign financing reform. Open the books, and I bet a big chunk of folks will see the light.

The biggest difference is that Trump isn’t trying to hide any of it because the Supreme Court game him a hall pass to do anything he wants.

How do we fix this? It won’t f***ing matter which party is in place as long as campaign financing is still an open purse for corporations.

If you want to know who’s running the US, it sure as hell isn’t Trump. What do you think of the “dark money” and “secret cabal” you were so sure was part of the past administrations now?

For all you hand wringers out there, this is no better than any of the past administrations.

Trump screws over the middle class in favor of his money grubbing AI buddies and suddenly those buddies are crying that they can’t take over every square inch of the US with data centers because the price of copper is too high.

Destruction leads to opportunity. This is your’s. Your turn to write a new, and universally accepted “Project USA” for our next chapter.

So, you don’t need to put things back the way they were before this all started.

Listen to the people. ALL the people. You’ll pick up your cues from them as to how to approach rebuilding our government, what things to focus on first, who should be your leaders?
