the politics scam is the first thing you work out when you wake up imo.

I see this so much online and it confuses me; how can you be aware of things like MK-ULTRA, ARTICHOKE, The Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2012, other military projects and tests using the unknowing American public or people from other nations as test subjects? Knowing of inside jobs, scandals, immoral acts and laws that were passed, all while watching presidents say one thing on the campaign trail and do another in office for years, but still believe in political theater? It makes absolutely no sense.

You couldn’t even get enough support or air time even if your whole state knew of and supported you if you wanted to run for POTUS; it’s a pay to play game, and they choose their set of mascots who play ball that they’re willing to let you fight/vote over. We vet websites for spammers, bots and trolls; they wouldn’t vet the candidates for POTUS and make sure they’re on the same side, willing to play ball?

The TV is their most powerful weapon, two wrong (or truthful) sentences on live TV from a well respected and liked POTUS could fuck things up for tptb. How do you fix a broken and corrupt system by using an extension of that broken and corrupt system that’s also broken and corrupt?

Which is why even primaries are rigged but also whatever it takes to become a candidate in the first place. It seems that you have to play dirty to even be in politics. Good cant prevail since you'd need money and power just to "play" in the first place.

I think, though, that despite the corruption they aren't all necessarily on the same team. With corruption, comes greed, manipulation, betrayal, etc and so their own teammates are also potentially their enemies.

Is there any possibility that with trump as much of a narcissist, he couldn't set aside pride to do everything that tptb want? Surely, there is a power struggle on that level too.

Definitely. I think their mother organization erncourages competition between themselves as a way to keep things interesting and let "the best (worst) man win".

Lol thanks, I honestly feel like a broken record; I feel I’ve said this before in so many different variations. I just will never understand it.
