These are amazing times. We had an election and the people voiced their decision. Yet, the so called “elected representatives” along with a court system and the media are representing and protecting the interests of the ruling elites, as if the election didn’t matter.
This certainly closer resembles a Communist style government vs. a Democratic Republic.
It's been that way for some time. Uneducated people don't notice, and well-fed and entertained people don't care.
Heck, SCOTUS has issued rulings based on obvious hallucinations, and the Congress barely remarks on it, let alone act on it.
This "three part checks and balances" gig is united in its own interests, which appears to be pandering to the masses.
