It is not complicated.

Our Politicians are a reflection of us.

Who ever gets in will be a reflection of the people.

No. And yes. No. Candidates rarely are found without ties to organized groups. Pre-selected and weeded out for reasons or kept in for reasons. So your choice of particle or wave is rather narrowed. Yes. Yes because voters do not refuse to strive to discern lesser evil. So knowing one choice is absolutely inimical to them they say no and knowing the other is too but in a less knowable way they vote yes.

In turn forcing an answer to TINA. If not Trump, then among his fellow brigands errr Republicans In Name Only who is best to preside over the sharp, suddens, sustained, superlative stupefying situation of Coup 2000 3 years later and Covid tyranny after Coup 9/11 after Coup JFK? Ought say a black female Cromwell elbow her way into the JCS and arrange a putsch proclaiming an end to military intervention and proclaim Peas in our Thyme: a return to traditional cookery and closing of military bases globally that show no proft.

Agree unless we get at the roots of our disaffection this time we are sunk. Go after these kleptocrats where it hurts the most. Any love affair we have with totalitarianism must come to an unromantic end.
