The Canadian government has insisted that information on domestic goods is readily available to all trading partners, even including nations that recently elected a felony-convicted game show host to be their head of state.

Election rules don’t come out of a vacuum, the people made them.
very naive perspective. bigger forces than “the people” are throwing everything they can at your democracy and this “oh well” attitude is handing your ass to them on a silver platter.

Fair I could be jumping to conclusions. I’m just saying that even if it were true that the majority of Americans chose Trump in a fair election where everyone had equal opportunity to vote, then even that wouldn’t mean the people are getting what they wanted.

If the United States makes its way out of this, systemic change will be necessary. Capitalism is at the root of this all.
