The point you're missing is that at the weapons makers have the profit margins to bribe trump and the republicans. If the poor people want their needs met, they are going to have to make a more substantive monetary offering. The president is too busy to consider something so insubstantial as the needs of the voters, unless it comes engraved on bars of gold. And yes that's "bars" plural.

Theres a reason there are DoD contractors in all US states and territories. That way any congressperson that comes out against the war machine gets primaried due to being a "job killer" in their home district/state.

I very much am not. I'm fully aware of how corrupt the political system already was BEFORE the Mango Mussolini and his fascist kakistocracy took it to 11.

Nice one! 😁🤜🏼

The ~~president is~~ people in control of all parts of the government as well as the leadership of the SUPPOSED opposition party are too busy to consider something so insubstantial as the needs of the voters

Fixed it for you

unless it comes engraved on bars of gold

Or toilets fashioned from the same material, in the case of the turd currently stinking up the oval office.
