Well, both parties are pretty awful. That’s the way the game is played and no one gets to the federal level who doesn’t know how to play the game. It simply isn’t possible to win if you don’t play dirty, or pretend not to notice people doing it for your benefit, because you put yourself at too much of a disadvantage against the multitude of people who don’t have those silly scruples. So, accept that fact, get past it, and figure out who will be working for you and who will be working against you. All politicians basically work for their own reelection. They may sincerely believe that their being in a position of power helps people they care about, or they may be simply interested in keeping a paying job. THE RESULT IS THE SAME. A vote that actually helps other people doesn’t count any more than one that only helps the congressman voting.
The voters need to be informed in order to separate the ones who are interested in helping the middle class from the corporate stooges who can then go get a job with their contributors. If you really want to know who a candidate will be working for, look at a site called “Open Secrets”. There are others, but this is a good one. It will tell you who is financing their campaign. We all have to do the bidding of who ever is supplying the money to pay our bills. So do politicians. If most of their money is coming from individuals, unions, or other organizations representing the Middle Class, that is who they are going to work for. If most of their money is from banks, etc, they are going to work for the 1%. They don’t really have any choice if they want to win the next election. To vote their conscience against the 1% would be political suicide.
Which is the real reason the My Pillow guy invented the My Pillow, so his followers could scream into the pillow every time they were presented with truth, fact, and reality. It’s also the reason that his pillows cost so much, having to pay off on his lies, deceptions and challenges.

I think most political junkies enjoy this mess. Those that have to wade through the piles, however…
