I wish that was true, but politicians on both sides of the isle are lying self-serving media whores who know most people don't vote and most of those who do vote know very little about who they vote for.

I'm a conservative, but I'll never vote for a Long Island republican because most are nothing but lying liberals. Especially Jack Martins and Edward Ra. That doesn't leave me with much to vote for in this cesspool of lies, deceit, corruption and self-serving politicians looking out only for themselves to keep their unproductive jobs for life.


Imagine for a moment the people mass together and always vote against the incumbent regardless of their political affiliation. Within two elections things would turn around very quickly in favor of the people. The politicians would be on notice that their cushy unproductive job source is over and would have to find another career that offers high pay for little work. Maybe we would actually see people seeking office with a different personality and attitude.

When I was about 5 years old, I would have agreed with you. By the time I was 8, I knew better.

Donald Trump should have asked Arnold Terminator to be his running mate. Those two would have been perfect together on the ticket. Good old family values.

Most important is HILLARY would appoint judges which don't follow the US Constitution. They will be loyal to the UN and Global order pushed by George Soros....open borders etc.

Again, except for the anti american liberals in NYC
