We've had characters like Trump in American politics forever, characters who trade on xenophobia.

Is there decency left in American politics?

The political power of the purse string has a place in America only when there are lots of little purses, and has no place in an American society when it exist only in the hands of a super rich minority. Monopoly is anti-American and anti our original reasons for independence from Britain.

American politics is always an open competition.

The thing about American politics, as I've learned, is there is no choice.

It is money, money, money! Not ideas, not principles, but money that reigns supreme in American politics.
