Remember when the Constitution mattered and Congresss declared war?
Now, if an egomaniac wants to win a few wars, he what, just starts them himself?

That's not a good sign.

(396 posts)3. Honestly we live in a pseudo-democracy
That should've been clear from the DOJ reports that came out from Ferguson, Baltimore and Chicago where constitutional violations were exposed...and no one ever got arrested. Not a single bastard who committed unconstitutional acts were ever held accountable. That told you right there that this is a democracy in name only. A democracy on paper. Voter suppression is another sign of America's pseudo-democracy. You're not very democratic if you're attempting to prevent people from voting and not counting all of the votes...that's HIGHLY undemocratic.
