Not much to add here, given the opening dependent clause.

      99% of voters are pretty dumb.

      They’ve voted for the same broken promises going on 40 years now, and we’re looking at an election featuring two failed presidents, one of whom has been impeached multiple times AND tried to steal an election. Neither of these candidates seems capable of forming coherent sentences either.

      The only people winning here are people invested in the stock market.

        Using 40 years as the yardstick, we’re pretty much at the logical end of Reagan’s policies of union-busting, deregulation and upward redistribution of wealth through “tax cuts for the middle class.” Main difference is people now view an 8% mortgage as usury.
