While I haven't at all read this topic, I feel this video (Rules for Rulers) might be interesting to some of the politically inclined people here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rStL7niR7gs

I enjoyed the video very much, and think that it is pretty topical to the thread. There are tons of reasons we can point to, in hindsight, for why Clinton lost. This video illustrates a very important one:

The last time Americans entrusted Clinton with the keys of power, (Sec St), she sold them to the highest (foreign) bidder. She ran her office more like the dictator in part 1 than the elected leader in part 2 by utilizing only a handful of keys, and relying on criminal acts to camouflage her chicanery.

Alternatively Trump promised people more keys than they've ever had before in their political lifetimes. In 2016, the people, above all else, wanted the keys to their country back (also why Bernie was so popular).

Thanks for sharing, I will definitely check out some of his other videos.

They're basically just emoting in the streets. They aren't protesting anything, they have no coherent rational message. They are a mob of people that want to be an emoji for 2 or 3 hours.

Bunch of entitled, clueless little twerps. They believe in democracy, until it doesnt go their way and then they have a little tantrum like spoiled brats. This is why everything is in such a sad state, even the conscientious liberal forward thinking youth are utterly clueless and delusional when it comes down to it. They dont have the smarts to change the rotten system.

lol, I was sent a video of kids marching against trump last night, pretty hilarious stuff. They were chanting "fuck trump" and "this is what democracy looks like", the cameraperson interviewed one of them briefly and he said he was proud that people turned out and their voice was being heard.

Im fairly sure democracy looks like a vote, like the one they just had and lost. That was their voice being heard, thats what a vote is, we dont need people on the street shouting to know a lot of people didnt want trump, over 200 elec col votes went against him, it didnt go unnoticed by anyone that a lot of people didnt want him. But more went for him, thats why hes now president, thats what democracy is.

I would tell them to hold onto their anger until trump actually does fucked up stuff.

We need a way to see if our vote was included in final tally, I don't trust mcCrory and his cronies as far as I can throw them to do the fair democratic thing.

At that point, why would you trust the large green check mark next to "YES, YOUR VOTE COUNTED!"?
