After trump and the UK Referendum, the FN in France and Wilders and the Alternatif fur Deutschland and on and on. And then South Korea?!
trump is clearly the pus finally coming out of a broken and amoral politics and neoliberal economics. But they are not the same. American political practice - constitution, electoral college and the shell parties which mean nothing and then try to mean something. And the most polled political system couldn't see it coming until the moment of impact.
The ethics of maintaining a broken system because anything else might....
The complete vacuum of political action - a rectangle of people at a road junction in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, the almost "moral rearmament" tone [...we have to change], the completely empty faces of the apparatchiks behind trump as he explained why he had settled the fraud case against his "university", the third division fuckwits he has disinterred to be Attorney General and head of the CIA.
Bankrupt and failing, listening to Twitter feeds and believing nutjob talk radio and farcebook and Hillary only lost by 0.00001% and now Amerika is in trouble [aka "waiting for a message of some kind"].
The political system has collapse and been replaced by performance.
A mass movement to oppose trump?
In a heavily armed political structure?
Where diversity and process can stop the force of gravity?
And no one remembers ........very much.
And the pronoun problem : WE or YOU.
