Step 1: have elections to get public office
Step 2: need to win the popularity contest to get elected
Step 3: spend money to promote yourself to as many people as possible
Step 4: opponents forced to try and outspend you
Step 5: eventually escalate the costs to the point where neither of you can afford to run anymore, nor can the vast majority of the population, limiting their available representatives the the extremely rich or people who get outside funding
Step 6: sell out to various lobbies to get campaign funds, but also tell people whatever they want to hear so you get elected
Step 7: ignore campaign promises to the general public because they don't pay the bills
Ta-da, political candidates with more sponsors than nascar, putting their demands above ours

"That what is called democracy is always in fact plutocracy. The only alternative to the rule of the rich is to have a ruler who is deliberately made more powerful even than the rich. It is to have a ruler who is secure of his place, instead of rulers who are fighting for their place." - G.K. Chesterton

Ah yes, the Tucker Carlson take

2018-08-21 00:22:14 UTC  

wdym? Not very familiar with Tucker

2018-08-21 00:22:19 UTC  

or his takes

2018-08-21 00:22:29 UTC  

lol, are you even from the US?

2018-08-21 00:22:35 UTC  

im assuming not

2018-08-21 00:22:36 UTC  

Yes. I don't watch tv

2018-08-21 00:22:39 UTC  

huh

2018-08-21 00:23:04 UTC  

I know he's better than most on tv, but he's able to stay on tv, so what he's saying isn't terribly controversial

2018-08-21 00:23:17 UTC  

I didn't imply he was

2018-08-21 00:23:18 UTC  

yet, at least

2018-08-21 00:23:25 UTC  

although some things he says are stupid as fuck

2018-08-21 00:23:25 UTC  

he's said some stuff that got close

2018-08-21 00:23:47 UTC  

I don't disagree, but we're probably thinking of different things lol

2018-08-21 00:23:56 UTC  

I mean he's smart, but on some things, hes just frustratingly dumb

2018-08-21 00:24:20 UTC  

so what were you referring to when calling that a TC take?

2018-08-21 00:24:30 UTC  

basically the mindset

2018-08-21 00:24:38 UTC  

which is

2018-08-21 00:24:51 UTC  

of a person hell-bent on draining the swamp

2018-08-21 00:24:56 UTC  

which is impossible as you know

2018-08-21 00:25:10 UTC  

Trump certainly isn't doing anything to drain it, that's for sure

2018-08-21 00:25:26 UTC  

lol, well I would disagree with that

2018-08-21 00:25:38 UTC  

lol

2018-08-21 00:25:40 UTC  

but mainly because I'm not thinking in terms of electoral politics

2018-08-21 00:26:26 UTC  

I mean, Cohen, Trump's ex lawyer, is about to be charged on campaign finance violations and $20M in bank fraud

2018-08-21 00:26:37 UTC  

How is that not swampy

2018-08-21 00:26:39 UTC  

(((Cohen)))?

2018-08-21 00:26:46 UTC  

surprise surprise

2018-08-21 00:26:47 UTC  

Michael Fucking Cohen

2018-08-21 00:27:00 UTC  

it's because trump sold out to jewish interests

2018-08-21 00:27:07 UTC  

for whatever reason

2018-08-21 00:27:14 UTC  

wtf lmao

2018-08-21 00:27:27 UTC  

I don't even think Cohen is jewish

2018-08-21 00:27:57 UTC  

Cohen is an extremely jewish name. So is Rosenstein

2018-08-21 00:27:58 UTC  

maybe, correct if me im wrong

2018-08-21 00:28:04 UTC  

lol tf

2018-08-21 00:28:14 UTC  

the JOOOOOOOOOS

2018-08-21 00:28:49 UTC  

What is Mueller jewish?

2018-08-21 00:29:21 UTC  

don't believe so, but it's possible. I'd have to check

2018-08-21 00:29:34 UTC  

"possible"
