    A while ago in the Politics forum I said America is a failed state.
    I got a lot of flack for that statement...

    It may be a "shitty job"... there's no reason to hand it to a corrupt & inept politician.

    If only there was an Ike like candidate out there. Maybe there is and we don't know about it.

    This would require the parties to acknowledge they have to change course immediately. One party has geriatric leadership and isn't fighting for what the current POTUS ran on while the other is all on the previous POTUS who can't acknowledge he lost.

    All of the Ike-like candidates are in the deep security state because that's just how the world rolls right now.

    McRaven, Clapper, I don't know who else would have the pull across party lines.

    Odierno would have been great but he passed, RIP.

    I doubt a capable leader will come from the military any time soon.

    Shit... I'd vote for @Br4d over any of these swamp creatures out of D.C.

    You’d be waiting for the government to give you your allowance every two weeks if Brad got in.

    In the immediate aftermath of a deadly mass shooting while the shooter is at large, ILGOP nominee for Governor Darren Bailey goes on Facebook to offer prayers for families & police, voices frustrations about a canceled parade, and then says, “Let’s move on and celebrate freedom.”

    Do most people in Australia post on the internet about American politics?

    You would have access to a Dentist though...

    Sounds fair. Able bodied adults should be working in some manner, ideally in fulfilling occupations.

    It’s always gotta be a conspiracy for some people.

    He's right, it's not some deep state conspiracy when it's right in your face and you continue to deny it.
