Yeah, meanwhile, he-who-must-not-be-named is under all sorts of investigations and the repugnicans don't make a peep, since they love their little malevolent dicktator.

Well there was a lot of things, and worse things, that Hillary Clinton did and she's never been convicted either. Bill Clinton should have been impeached for his affair, but nooo, and that wasn't his only fling nor about all his other illegal stuff he did and still does. So the Demogods do the same crap. In fact all, or at least most, politicians, including Reps and Dems, participate in insider trading that is illegal for us to do. Welcome to America

Yup. It does appear the Republican elite may regret not handpicking their candidate and rigging the primary election so the rabble's vote would be nothing more than a rubber stamp. And the political aristocracy wonders why it has lost the trust of the people, who will vote for any alternative. Easier to blame the Russian bogeyman I guess.

Never trust a guy who's never had a drink in his life.

Never trust a guy who likes 60 calorie beer.

Never trust a guy who loves beer at 16.

The "Republican elite" don't exist anymore, if there every was such a thing - all that's left are the trash in the hollers and trailer parks.

I believe the problem is at both sides.

Politics turned into agendas for both sides, here, there and everywhere. And globally speaking we got to a point that is getting in conflict with the real issues of every country with their own people.

The other big issue is that if politicians do not lie, they dont get elected, no matter if you are right side, left side or even center they say what the people want to hear so they get elected, if half way the promeses were taken by the wind... well... it is what it is. Which is sad, because at the end nothing gets done and we end up worried more about what the kardashians eat or did during the weekend than focused in what really matters, that is everybody rowing in the same direction with a common target. Both sides have their agendas and nothing gets done, just sad.

The ONLY thing keeping the repubs on the sidelines is the economy..when that goes south and the budget deficit for 2019 goes to about $1.5 TRILLON, then they 'may' speak up but buckle up, gonna be a bumpy 1-2 years...
