     Hilary Clinton did not prevail in the 2016 US presidential election. I thought she had had it in the bag.

    So did too many Democrats, who then did not bother to vote. Apathy got Trump elected, he got his vote out.

    Complete idiots being elected, or even nominated.

    Something about Hilary Clinton not winning the 2016 Presidential Election. Instead, we all got the putz that we have right now.

    The DNC shot itself in the foot in 2016 by nominating a deeply unlikeable candidate with baggage. They've done it again this time, but the train wreck that is the Trump administration could help them get a poor candidate across the line - unless the Dem voters again conclude that Joe is a shoo-in and don't bother to vote.

    I end up in a police station one night getting fingerprinted and processed as a criminal by theft when a woman falsely accused me of breaking into her car and stealing gold coins. No lady and no policeman show and they still made me go back six times to court. It's pathetic and controlling when courts team up with cops.  I did not plea bargain but fought it until the last time I was in court where beforehand I was given the pay up option by my lawyer to be released but refused until that session was over.  It was insanity this is true. Goodbye one thousand dollars because no matter what, you end up paying it anyways for wasting the courts time. Am I going to have a record I ask and the lawyer said no and I really hope so. Lesson learned! Do not walk in back of buildings! This post was edited by CosmicWunderkind at September 18, 2020 8:08 AM MDT

    Sometimes the selfishness of human nature wins out. That may occur cyclically. This post was edited by CosmicWunderkind at September 18, 2020 8:08 AM MDT
