Either we are in the Twilight Zone or we are still missing something. We still think the rules matter. The odd thing is that if Trump wins, he will be making Vance's point that democracy is NOT worth bothering with.

Talk about conspiracies, this tale of the Rise of the 4th Reich certainly reveals a BIG FIX at work.

The final stage is the systematic dismantling of democracies around the globe. Note: https://medium.com/@daneke/democracy-redux-reflections-for-the-fourth-of-july-12c1afbab4cd
