Do you ever get this feeling that .... the US presidential elections are actually just SCRIPTED, the way WWE wrestling is scripted?

Update:

After all, you have those 'candidates' doing their events which sound very similar to those wrestlers grabbing the microphone in interviews and ranting about the other wrestler(s).

    I wouldn't say scripted, but definitely fixed. The system needs changed

    Long before Trump became the last man standing, I have been calling this for Hillary forever.

    Any of the GOP candidates, or DEMOCRATIC candidates could have come out of nowhere and put up a fight.

    Not a single , solitary thing has swayed my opinion that Clinton will be the next president........not the rise (and fall) of Bernie..... Not the GOP imploding.........not the Amazing Run Trump is having.......

    it's still clearly an obviously going to be Hillary.

    In that sense.............yes, this is feeling incredibly scripted......because there hasn't been on credible surprise yet.

    Yes. All the time. Most people are just ignorant. And they want to believe that they can actually make a difference. They want to believe that their votes matter and they live in a free country. Heh, imbeciles. Ignorance is bliss I suppose. But I see politics for what it is, a soap opera to distract the ignorant masses while the government is f*cking everybody over.

    The morality lessons are presented as a means of learning. If the uneducated are unable to see parallels, they are doomed.

    No. I associate that type of thinking with conspiracy idiots who never seem to be able to come up with concrete facts to support their "feelings".
