American Elections totally Rigged

It's scary.

We tried using electronic voting machines over here (Ireland) years ago, to much fanfare.
They weren't deemed secure or safe enough so we ditched them and went back to good old pen and paper.
I think the useless machines are still stored somewhere at tax-payers expense.

An expensive folly.

Like water cannons.

Rigged for who?

Who ever has the most money.

"who ever has the most money"

Since when was that a secret?
That is the system working as designed.

I suppose it's more comforting to think the elections were rigged, so you don't have to think the elctorate is so fouled up that they voted for Trump.

Well, the elections are always rigged! (Because of money)

The only reason people suddenly care is because Trump was the one who took advantage this time round.

Everyone wants to complain about Trump, but i hardly see anyone complaining about the buy a vote system America steadfastly REFUSES to fix.

As for people voting for Trump... my theory is this... people simply got tired of *political correctness* - got tired of being told what they should think and say, got tired of feeling like they dont have a voice.
