As a reminder, presidents are chosen specifically by the rich, to distract from the misdeeds and corruption that goes on behind the scenes, there's a lot of charisma, showmanship, stage presence, photogenics, oratory, likeability, and appearing larger than life involved, sold by a trillion dollar hype machine, to get elected. They are admired as celebrities, by people who want a taste of the spotlight. They live in a big eurocentric doll house, on 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, designed to cement the colonial empire of the USA, chosen in color to legitimize white supremacy, to whitewash the genocide of Natives of the land. All paid for, by us, the people, some of whom are starving.

Did you know that the investigation into the 2008 stock market crash, and the #corruption involved, was stopped under the Obama administration, and cleverly moved out of the spotlight of the news cycle? Presidents, of both parties are there in the spotlight to cover up what's happening in the darkness outside the spotlight.
#Healthcare was complicated and expensive. People want #UniversalHealthcare. So #Obama sold us #ObamaCare. Now, healthcare is complicated, expensive AND mandatory. More money for the "healthcare industry".
"But Obama would NEVER do such things, surely. Look at him! He's so charming. I like Obama!!! He's a man of character!" 😂😂😂
Politicians are NOT your friends. They're stand-ins for corrupt capitalists.
Here's a TED talk by Dr. Lawrence Lessig on the subject:
