I am avoiding linking to the Fox article so as to not send them traffic. Can’t make this stuff up.

    I’m still surprised people in the US actually vote only for people so old they can’t reasonably do the job properly. I mean what’s up with that?

    I guess the cynic in me thinks only people that old have a lifetime of being beholden to the powers behind the curtain to have their trust to receive big campaign funding. But that doesn’t explain Trump. He was never really ‘favoured’ by the establishment as far as I gather. Not that I think he was a good president of course, don’t get me wrong!

      When it always comes down to 2 choices, it ends up being not much of a choice. 😐
