Trump vs. Hillary was the plan. It makes wall Street Hillary seem very reasonable in comparison.

I think the oligarch's thought that by simply running a woman for President the left would fall all over themselves in joy. Some have, as is seen here on DU, while many others are actually interested in what she stands for, not what her gender is. It's almost like professional wrestling where you get the obvious bad guy, Trump against the golden girl, Hillary. Bernie has spoiled their little political theater.

30 years of decline and pain. They've got the all the power, own the media and are extremely wealthy- except for our vote, and even that they've been steadily working to suppress.

But The People will prevail.

it has been gratifying, but not fair yet in any way, that they had no choice but to increase the exposure to him.

I am appalled in general that there are no news about anything but the American choices of presidential aspirants all day and all night. As if there is no rest of the world.
Like the 50 year old neighbor who stood in front of a world map in my kitchen and asked me where is America. Once I showed her she asked: When did it get so small?
