Yeah I know. It's very fucked. What  I meant was it's brilliant, the irony, of someone who should have been president(or at least was the only decent major candidate) is now just another politician under a president that very few people have faith in. All this in what's supposed to be, or should be, or perhaps despite the fucked political system is, "one of the greatest countries on earth". Either way, it's not exactly encouraging that this is the state of the political system.

All Bernie had to do was somehow imply Donald was less of a big-man or "winner" if he didn't do so, and Trump would bite like a nine year old being "double dared".

We just HAD our own revolution a few decades ago and we changed half the planet in the wake of it....(The fall of the Berlin wall and the collaps of the USSR just to be clear) NEVER AGAIN try to tell me or others that we can't change anything! It's incredibly disrespectful to someone like me, who had spend the first 13 years of his life unable to see his grandma and the other parts of his family because they happened to be on the other side of the iron curtain!

If it weren't for those millions of people rising to the streets the GDR and USSR would still exist. 

(I'm the son of an eastern german refugee who grew up in western Germany, just for explanation.)

I wouldn't go that far to say you're ignorant, but being an American might surely influence your way of thinking and especially considering capitalistic measures. You guys should really get out more, see more of this planet...widen your horizon. 

Again---NEVER think you can't change anything! They just WANT YOU TO BELIEVE THAT YOU CAN'T.

That is not how you do a challenge. Seriously. "Hey Mr. Presidente do this!" or...? Or what, moron? This is just a pathetic man who isn't willing to lose anything talking to an equally pathetic crowd who think this is acceptable. Why would anyone get anything done to this senile communist who is willing to do nothing himself?

And just because of course you needed to mention the world wars...back then, when the NSDAP took over (the Nazis), people were being SHOT for opposing them! Same with the regime in the GDR... people were being spied on on a regular basis, by neighbours and the STASI, essentially what the NSA is doing in your country these days, only less intrusive. (not kidding)
If you dared to say something against the eastern German regime they'd put you away and scare your family for life so you'd keep your mouth shut in the future.

SO fucking BE THANKFUL that you (still) CAN PROTEST! It would be incredibly unthankful and unethical if you just refused to do it, because someone has brain washed you to think it doesn't change anything!

All I can see in OP is Bernie caught Trump in a lie. Don't know what lie or how, but does it matter, NO. All politicians are caught in lies all the time. Every time some new election is coming up a person says something and there are dozens of videos of them saying the very exact opposite of that years or weeks earlier.

Also, this is like the 3rd new Trump topic this week. There was a Trump topic made that all of this junk is supposed to go in. Quit making new topics and go and cry to each other about November 2016 there.

I'm sad to hear that you had to endure that...war is terrible and especially senseless and unnecessary ones at that. 

And don't think I'm naive enough not to know that a lot of the stuff you're saying is true. Money does make the world go 'round.

But what you still need to remember is that YOU the PEOPLE SHOULD BE the ones in power, if you really want to consider your system to be a democratic one. We both know that the hypocrisy with the U.S. trying to export "democracy" while it seems to have huge problems in maintaining a functioning democracy ITSELF is kinda huge.
And to be frank that's the reason why you guys should have risen up LONG AGO already....instead of voting for a baffoon who can barely think and talk and has the intellect of a 12 year old bully.

But yeah...panem et circensis. Brot und Spiele. Bred and Games!
"As long as I can see the next show on reality TV I don't need to think about politics anymore. I don't understand it anyway.."

This kind of thinking is killing your society. It's more than needed that today's society is getting more and more politically interested and eganged! Dare to oppose your officials, or you'll end up in a dictatorship like many before already (and, to an extend, countries with similar minded people as Trump in power, like Russia or Turkey) which TODAY are essentially close to being dictatorships as well.

That's like willingly voting for Hitler just because you wanted change...not very thought out but I get the meaning. I'm sure many of you regret it already and they should. At least, contrary to the NSDAP back then, you won't get openly shot if you oppose him (even though I've heard people have lost their jobs because they did.)

That's what I don't get about this. You voted for Trump "to change the establishment" but you voted for "replacing them with way worse people"?!


It's basically like saying I didn't like what Molyneux was promising me all the time, so I voted Pachter instead! (lol)
