47. You should really try to learn something about the political system.

Excuse you, but I know enough about the political system to know that I don't trust thuglicans as far as I can throw a Mack Truck to collect and tally votes fairly. They control and run almost EVERY facet of voting across this country, and they aim to KEEP that advantage by any means necessary so they can STAY in power. And with this LAST GE, you had the ruskies interfering and thuglicans voter-suppressing and gerrymandering the hell out of Democrats. FACT.

You keep on trusting in and believing that this current crop of thuglicans count Dem votes fairly though
