    Why does it seem like everyone forgot that he already tried to rig the elections on Jan 6 (not you specifically, but America as a whole)? Democracy officially died on January 20, 2025, and we were screaming from the rooftops that it was going to die if Trump were reelected. But Trump is just a symptom of a larger issue.

    The real rot in our system has been here since the founding of the country. The founding fathers chose capitalism as the form of economics, and what they didn’t realize (or maybe did) was that they were just replacing one king with another. They explicitly allowed people who seek power to continue to be allowed to have power over others. Regardless of how much it is or isn’t regulated, it will always lead back to the same road. Call it monarchy, oligarchy, fascism, dictatorship, or whatever else you want, but this is the road that we travel down whenever we allow rulers in society.
