    It’s wild how much the campaign has become purely his own ego. There’s zero accountability to his base or the public/party, only God can tell :brump: to quit. There’s zero consequence to anyone else if he does his gosh darn best and doesn’t win now. That will only make his 2028 campaign stronger.

        The system only works if such pos are the face of it, an almost human facade masking the money/power grab of the ruling class.

        This cannot change without a system change, ie a revolution (and to be clear, Im not insinuating El Dolando is that, far from it), something to equate the people with the few, give them power and democratic influence.

        You know, the French way (some cutting, a few years of random & needles bloodshed, followed by a sort of restart, a democratic reboot). Its bad, but then again only a few very very particular cases (which dont apply here) managed to do it sort of bloodlessly. But none with evolution. Any systems prime directive is self-preservation, and that is as strong as call-to-actions get.
