Trump’s destruction of America continues post presidency

[Weezer]

Luther fails to grasp that we are supposed to be 50 independent states uniting to form a country. I mean, it's in the name. United States of America. Each person gets say within their state. Each state gets say in the Republic. Hog is not wrong about the 17th Amendment. Senators were meant to speak for their states. Not their political party, not popular opinion, but what best suits the needs of their state. The 17th Amendment corrupted that. The House is meant to speak for the people, which is why representation is based on population. Together, the Senate and the House were to balance the needs of the people and the needs of the states.

There is no doubt that the country we have now is not the country our Founding Fathers truly envisioned. The federal government may as well be a monarchy that we are forced to bow to. It was never supposed to be as big, or corrupt, as it has become.

The American people did not elect Trump. The electoral college elected Trump. The American people elected Clinton.
You can love the electoral system but what comes with that is the loss of the ability to say "the American people".
The establishment not only had the right to do what they did, they had the obligation and the duty.

This Sounds exactly like something an ass clown would say

I know right! -2.9 million more Americans to be exact.

Excessive numbers of loons in CA, NY and Illinois shouldn’t be allowed to F it up for everyone

This sounds exactly like something someone would say who spent a large chunk of their most formative years working in wardrobe...........after being selectively placed there.

Remember at the beginning of the campaign when the campaign managers and the candidates sat down and developed a strategy to win the nation-wide popular vote?

Yeah, me either! Because that gets you nothing. The goal is to win the election, not the nation-wide popular vote.

These same assclowns (as you so accurately described them) probably obsess over which team got the most first downs every Saturday lol.The goal is to win the game, not the secondary statistics.

It was a great job at the time…. I got to interact with most every girl that worked in the park on a daily basis and the results were most enjoyable

The Federal Government is like an addict that has to get a bigger and bigger fix to maintain that high. The substance fix is OUR MONEY and the high is more and more power.
