They're wasting their time.
There are too many countries with too many variables doing their own thing, who want no part of it.
But I'm sure they'll keep trying, regardless.

Partially true but the top of the pyramid has immense power as they control the purse strings. Who has all the power on this beautiful globe? The International Bankers. Money rules. No money, no honey.


"Permit me to issue and manage the money of a nation and I care not who establishes it's laws." Mayer Anselm Rothschild, 1790. Loosely translated...want money? Do as I say.

No, conservatives aren't all a bunch of conspiracy theorists. Just a handful of whackos on this thread.

They know what's going on they just don't want to look.

They either

1. They know but don't seem to care
2. Don't know, and are naive about how power can be mishandled by governments
3. Openly support and believe in a large all encompassing cradle to grave governmental control in people's lives.

Not sure how many more options there are left.

I think it would sound better if he called it, "Make American Trump Again". or alternately, "Make Trump Great Again."

All of the above for sure. Can't remember which poster it was but they penned a brilliant quote. Something to the effect of "everything a liberal sees is thru the lens of racism, sexism, equality etc." So if a given topic isn't ISM related, they brush it off and concentrate on something that is. It's that simple. They have no bandwidth for this material.

I've said versions of the bolded here for awhile, power, class(wealth), race.

The victimhood totem, the higher you sit up, the more passes one is given.

Straight white males are at the bottom.

Yes indeed! In some ways it's great that libs are so focused on these issues but there is a difference between being focused and obsessed. When obsessed, a person becomes myopic and can't see or comprehend other governmental issues that are equally or even more important. I think we are witnessing this on a broad scale right now.


Republicans: Hey the Titanic is sinking here and taking on water. Other heavily armed destroyers and battleships are circling us!!!! Please wake up everybody. Red Alert.


Liberals: That's fine that the Titanic is sinking but we just want to make sure the entire waitstaff is equally paid and represented and there are enough group activities that celebrate Pride Month.

Republicans love big money and corporations, they’re the ones sinking the boat.
