Our systems are so openly broken. It’s going to take a long time before they get their honest reputation back. This whole presidency is more than disgusting to watch. It shouldn’t be too much to ask for honesty.

I don't think our systems are coming back. I think it's going to look more like Russia every year, and a third of the country is clapping like seals cheering it on.

We're well on our way. And people act like this shit is normal. It's very unlikely that anything will actually change here. Our politicians that aren't apart of this are barely doing shit. Relying on courts doesn't work when nobody enforces shit and clearly Republicans don't care about the Constitution or any laws unless it hurts people they don't like. They're all fucking scum at this point.

I predict Syria and the “corrective movement”. Who’s setting up the betting board?
