“Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an invisible government owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people. To destroy this invisible government, to befoul the unholy alliance between corrupt business and corrupt politics is the first task of the statesmanship of today.”
I agree Bugsy.
But....
I would argue that this holds true for Trump as well..
"t sits enthroned an invisible government owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people"
This guy has never come clean on his foreign ties.
He is making policy and deals without us - the people -
not knowing where his t
rue interests lie....
And I would say the same thing about the Clintons..
" the unholy alliance between corrupt business and corrupt politics is the first task of the statesmanship of today.”
It is all coming home to roost with Trump.
Would have been the same thing with the Clintons.
But. Donald has made his fortune in NYC real estate and Atlantic City gaming. And now he has franchised it out.
And it ain't run by the Boy Scouts.
And Donald Trump has never associated himself with boy scouts.
His plea and claim of being persecuted by the "Man"..
falls on deaf ears to me.
Times heals all wounds - I guess - as they say...
So I will give Bubba and W a free pass.
My two most despised folks in America today are.....
The Hillary and Donald........
(well to make it a three-some I had to throw in Bubba - or the Don...take your pick....)

Bubba would have never made it in today's climate.
He was pre-internet age and pre Trump.
and a politician.....
Trump was given a free pass.....
by his hardcore supporters....
He's not a politician.....
but yet we will put up with even worse stuff from him then the average politician does. Or has done.
He has taken a beating. As he should.
But. We never saw all the Hillary Clinton stuff play out.
Would be interesting to have seen what would have happened.
I hate to see it. But she doesn't carry the same baggage.
Trump has sooo many stories from the past plus the way he ran the campaign. He was never vetted. 70 years under the radar.
And he was never vetted beyond celeb status.
But yet. That is quibbling. It is tremendous.
The Hillary stuff.
Obviously the liberal media would have been biased.
We will never know.
Again.
Which is your favorite stooge. Between Shemp and Curly.
They were brothers.
