I think I do.
But at the last election I felt snubbed by Miljøpartiet De Grønne (The Greens) that gave up on their own program and traded promises for position and only work on elevating their own privileged by cutting tax on electric cars that the average person can't afford as a second car and a bigger highway out to the high-cost neighbourhoods.
But what can a voter do? I've had no reason to disbelieve their words until they started doing the directly opposite. It's interesting since I think we can draw comparison with Sanders; when actions speak louder than words there is obviously stuff going on behind the scenes.
I think that leaves us with a couple of realistic alternatives;
In MDG's case I think it's the second. Due to the circumstances surrounding the US election and Sanders I think it's the last.
But it doesn't matter does it? Because action does speak louder than words. And the only way both my own MDG and your Sanders could ever be electable again is if their hippocracy is disproven or vindicated.
If MDG can prove that they lied "for the political cause" they're fine. Right now it's been proven that they wanted cheaper cars for themselves.
If Sanders can prove that he was under unreasonable pressure from the HillBillary camp he can possibly become electable again but right now he caved to the pressure and that's hardly a presidential quality is it?
But back to your original comment, if I were eligble to vote in the US election (Or just manage to get to a US voting booth due to the rediculous voting system that is more leaky than Titanic) I would vote for Trump.
Not because I like his politics and rethorics but because I'm afraid of Hillary's.
You guys just stationed several hundred US marines on our lands as a semi-permanent base. We're neighbouring Russia. We're back to being a nuke hotspot, something we've been free of since the mid-90's.
I belive that Hillary Clinton might be the death of me if she gets into power.
