I do like that he calls out both sides, and he predicted that Trump would win because so many disenfranchised working class people were going to vote for him as a fuck you to the political establishment.Yep. I have an ultra liberal neighbor who lost his mind when Moore made that prediction. He wasn't laughing at 10 PM on election night. There are 3 major reason these candidates are not fringe anymore: 1. Clinton "working" with Republicans in the late 90s, de-regulating the financial sector (which was continued by Bush in the 2000s). 2. The Tea Party pushing the R's far right, and left's retaliation in response. 3. The Citizen's United decision ensures money is never our of politics, leading to the support of grass-roots populists candidates. Last edited on Tue Jun 25th, 2019 04:28 pm by nyhack56 |
