Yup. The corruption is blatant, and the worst part is, they don't even hide it... the threat of impending doom keeps the voters subservient. Instead of pointing out the corruption, we equivocate. I'm not a nihilist or a pessimist and most certainly do not want Trump to win. But refusing to acknowledge the blatant corruption puts us right where we started.
Props to you for actually reading the article. If anyone else who replied to the comment had done the same, there wouldn't be as many "what-about-isms"
