Ok, but most Americans didn't vote for Trump tho. He's not undefeatable. He's just a con man.
Most Americans didn't vote
That might be true, but from what I've understood- most of the people that voted didn't vote for him. This shows so obvious what everyone has known for decades: America's voting system is flawed in of itself
And not voting is voting for what ever happens next
Honestly as an Australian its baffling to me that peoples "freedoms" take precedent over mandatory voting.
Mandatory voting means one HOUR over three or four YEARS must be exhausted getting your ass to a polling booth and ticking a box. It's not a big deal. The upsides so significantly outweigh the downsides.
Idk how it is in australia but for me the fact that you have to REGISTER to vote is baffeling!
The state knows where you live! It knows everything about you. Why does he not know if you are allowed to vote but that you can be drafted?!?
Yeah that's a really weird concept. In Serbia you just get mail some time before elections that tell you where to go to vote, and you either go there where they have your name already and you just show them your ID, or you don't go and then you didn't vote.
Thats because non-citizens can be drafted.
Not if you're a billionaire. Billionaires don't want the people to choose what the government does
