Election 2016: The Powerful vs. The People

This election is simply about those who are in control in politics, media, and popular culture versus the people. Bernie Sanders was wildly popular because he was a breath fresh air; original, organic, not intertwined within the establishment. Trump emerged victorious in the GOP primaries largely because he wasn't a career politician and was willing to take on the powers that be that turned the GOP into nothing more than "Democrat-lite".

The Dems rigged their primaries against Bernie to promote HRC to the top of the ticket. The GOP reluctantly passed the baton to Trump. So now we have it laid before us: Hillary who represents career politicians, the status quo in Washington, Wall Street, the New York media, and Hollywood versus Trump who represents the people who want to take their government back.

The establishment is pulling out the stops.

Yesterday Trump summarized what this election is about with this paragraph from his speech:

Quote:
“Anyone who challenges their control is deemed a sexist, a racist, a xenophobe and morally deformed. They will attack you, they will slander you, they will seek to destroy your career and your family, they will seek to destroy everything about you, including your reputation. They will lie, lie, lie, and then again they will do worse than that, they will do whatever is necessary. The Clintons are criminals, remember that. They’re criminals.”
The people will probably lose once again. Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama, and now Clinton---32-36 years of monochrome leadership in the White House keeping all of the power brokers and the corrupt machine that is the federal government pretty much well fed and happy.

It's happening before our very eyes and too many of us are blind to see it.
