The MAIN problem with our election system isn't China - it's the people behind the system itself - who are American citizens. We can remove all the overseas interference, and we will still have a corrupt election SYSTEM.
When China buys those pols, it's a China thing. Yes, our pols are comped and screwed, bit ultimately, if China doesn't do what it does, literally NOME of this takes place.
No offense, but this simply isn't true. They can keep everything entirely in the US, entirely managed by the US, and still create the election outcomes they desire. 100%.
Correct! You could plug any other country in, or no country. The problem is our citizens who sell their souls for money or power. Treason needs to me with severe penalties! Death!!
There will always be corruption but I believe the system can be greatly improved. Voter ID, signature verification, chain of custody, multiple witnesses (video included to settle a dispute?) etc., etc.. Side note, the mafia has far more morals and honor than the government.
And swift justice for malefactors.
True. By the same token, they are hoping that attention will be focused on foreign interference and that the SYSTEM will be ignored. Above all, they want their election SYSTEM to remain intact because, as it stands now, even without foreign interference they control every election going forward. Trump knows this.
Thank God Trump knows this.
