Then we had best return the favor.
With interest.

Sure, but the voters aren’t that great either.

Tell me, how do you actually know that when the criminally corrupt insiders and their operatives control and run the elections?

When the SHTF the elites think they will be the last to get eaten.

It won’t be pretty.

“Sure, but the voters aren’t that great either.”

Agree - the more universal that voting got, the worse the elected leaders became.

Now we pay...

Nobody is willing to give up their social niceties, like pensions, to have babies. When I mentioned that eliminating social spending is a necessity to fix societies, they’d rather have society die than give up what they believe is owed to them.

Our leaders in Washington, the so called ‘Deep State’ uniparty. Otherwise known as the Republican Democrats, they should change the name to INGSOC Party.

Yeah, Biden was pretty honest when he said our government would destroy us if we complained too loudly about their dictatorship policies.

Our nation is no longer governed. It is ruled. And those rulers are ruthless.

In the end, there will be no finger-pointing. A checked-out immoral citizenry that refuses to be biblically literate, doomed this nation.

With better informed, more discerning voters the elections wouldn’t be close enough for cheating to work. Half the voters want this mess, and a lot of Americans don’t care. That means it doesn’t take much to steal elections.

Those “elites” should enjoy themselves while they still can. The lake of fire won’t be any fun!

The whole intent of the mass migration is the elimination of white people. By claiming that we aren’t indigenous to America, they remove our right to live here. By flooding Europe with third worlders, we have no place to return to.

It means, through societal mingling, that there will be a time when white people simply don’t exist.

However, the Democrat Party and the presstitutes that service them have no respect whatsoever for truth.

Yep, and Tagline says it with every post.

Corruption in government is generally well hidden by the professional lawyer politicians/ruling class. They're very good at it.

For example, when Trump was a candidate then elected, did you know at the time those in government, those surrounding him and many others, would eventually lie and stab the man in the back, try to frame him and attempt to criminally undermine, compromise and overthrow his presidency?

This is a long and arduous article by the New York times. (spit)

It’s about those so called “Ruling Elites”. The last 4 or 5 paragraphs may spur you to read the rest....maybe.

Speechwriters like Noonan share a common problem. They are nothing but writers creating flowery prose for the president to perform. But they soon imagine themselves as policy makers, and deep intellectuals on serious matters.

In fact, they are essentially English teachers who found a high paying gig.
