You’re wrong, Reid. Yet again, you and the Silicon Valley technorati are misreading events and thus, the likely outcome of Hillary losing the election.

Obama wasn’t the great change-maker you guys made him out to be. But that was evident when he selected insider Joe Biden for his running mate.

He didn’t improve the relationship between parties as he promised. He didn’t reduce government intrusion into our lives, he multiplied it. He didn’t increase technological innovation, except for ways to invade our privacy more. He didn’t bring world peace. He didn’t bring back jobs. And the rich keep getting richer, and the poor keep getting poorer.

You see, a US president has very limited political and social power in the real world. Why else would the Black Lives Matter movement have started after 8 years of having a black president, instead of during the term of a white one?

The hero-worshipping of politicians and individuals blinds many as to their inability to exert inexorable, absolute authority in our country. It’s true in the political arena, seeing that we have separate legislative, executive and judicial branches, and it’s true in socioeconomic affairs as well. A hero just isn’t guaranteed to be a success.

In the same vein, you and the out of touch as usual Silicon Valley crowd are violently against Trump, claiming that with him as president, things will escalate out of hand. That next, we’ll have cats sleeping with dogs!

The social climate is changing because it always changes. Things will get worse, regardless who is elected. And things will improve, regardless who is elected. These are macro forces in effect.

We survived 3 Bush terms, we can survive at least 1 of Trump.

The real danger here is electing Hillary. The road to ruin is to continue this two-party hegemony, the status quo. The big-money politicking that puts partisanship and special interests ahead of the good of the people. This political process that leaves voters with little choice but to vote for the lesser of two evils.

Well this election year, Trump is better than the lesser of two evils. He’s the iconoclast. He’s the anti-hero. He scares the Wall Street fat cats and big campaign contributors so much, they’re contributing to Hillary even bigger than before.

You see, what you and the left-wing ideologues haven’t acknowledged is that the anti-incumbent sentiment is bigger than ever before. You continue to misinterpret all the social unrest in the country. It isn’t about race. It isn’t about gender. It isn’t about immigration. It isn’t about class. It’s about fighting against, retaking, and reshaping the system. It’s our system, and more people are finally taking responsibility for the mess it’s in.

And it’s precisely due to fear-mongering like you’re practicing which has gotten us into this mess. This resignation to vote for the lesser of two evils which results in giving us more of the same, because it rewards the team which is better at manipulating the election.

We’ve all heard the terrible deeds brought to light by Wikileaks, of the DNC party staffers actively undermining the campaign of other legitimate candidates in order to make the nomination of Hillary seem legitimate. But we know it’s a lie. And so do you and those with you who are campaigning so vigorously for her.

You’re partly to blame for this. So am I. So are our parents, and their parents, and their parents before them, etc. We have ingrained into the national psyche the mindset that it’s better to vote for the lesser of two evils than it is to accept the loss this time around and fix the problems in our political process now before the next election.

As a VC, you are well acquainted with the importance of making the changes necessary to protect your self-interest. If things are going poorly, you either guide management in a better direction, change leadership, or shut it down and stop throwing good money after bad.

We in the Tea Party have done our part the past few years, disrupting the schemes of the GOP leaders to see members they can control get into office.

It’s time for Democrats to do the same, and end the corruption in their party that coerces, manipulates, and interferes with the voting process which defrauds their members of their due process. Now it’s time to stop perpetuating the abuses of a corrupt system, and stop rewarding the very same ones denying you a fair system.

This election has the chance to end the two-party nightmare. A Trump loss will actually reinvigorate GOP leadership somewhat, but the party is weakened regardless. A Hillary loss, whether to Trump or another, will devastate the DNC corruption and finally give regular voters a voice in the system.
