Our great constitutional democracy - said document written by slave owners and Indian killers whom we are taught to worship as founding fathers - numbers an electorate of more than 230 million. In 2016 less than 125 million chose from the presidential lesser evil slate of the pinhead with a penis or the vixen* with a vagina. 100 million did not vote at all and combined with those who actually chose one of the lesser evils, that means 160 million members of the electorate, some 70%, chose neither one.
Putin was just re-elected in Russia, getting 75% of the vote in a turnout of some 60% of the electorate of 110 million. He got fifty percent of the electorate while our deadly duo barely got 30% each. Clearly, our great democracy is much more democratic and Russia’s is a sham, a hypocritical excuse for a police state of war mongering fiends with genetic needs to lie, cheat and steal. And if we, like much of our liberal and conservative leadership, regularly visit a proctologist to have our brains examined, that makes enough sense to continue paying more for milk than we pay for gasoline, spend more for war than we do for peace, and lavish time, money and love [ on trivial stupidities ] while many of our humans lack housing, health care and sanity.
Isn’t it great to be a member of the master race of self-chosen people?
*Chump: a foolish, stupid or gullible person; dupe or fool
*Twit: a foolish, contemptible little person
*Vixen: a spiteful or quarrelsome woman

The Best Definition of Donald Trump We Have Found
In his zeal to prove to his antagonists in the War Party that he is as bloodthirsty as their champion, Hillary Clinton, and more manly than Barack Obama, Trump seems to have gone “play-crazy” -- acting like an unpredictable maniac in order to terrorize the Russians into forcing some kind of dramatic concessions from their Syrian allies, or risk Armageddon.However, the “play-crazy” gambit can only work when the leader is, in real life, a disciplined and intelligent actor, who knows precisely what actual boundaries must not be crossed. That ain’t Donald Trump -- a pitifully shallow and ill-disciplined man, emotionally handicapped by obscene privilege and cognitively crippled by white American chauvinism. By pushing Trump into a corner and demanding that he display his most bellicose self, or be ceaselessly mocked as a “puppet” and minion of Russia, a lesser power, the War Party and its media and clandestine services have created a perfect storm of mayhem that may consume us all.— Glen Ford, Editor in Chief, Black Agenda Report
