Everything in between the Trump cult and left-wing wackos like Ink is just... the mainstream. I don't know why people have to pretend there's some nefarious power structure, either in the corporate world or in government.

Comey would be a bad example of the NWO's puppet, considering he's stood up against unlawful government overreach multiple times in his career(most notably against Stellar Wind program). But I guess it's just easier to demonize people in power.

and better yet, demonize people once they've left power. its like blaming the teams problems on the coach that just got fired, it takes a whole nother season before they start to blame the QB, or the OC, or whoever. its easy to blame someone who can no longer be held accountable, all you're left with is feelings of unfairness, but a sense that you cant change it because they're just out of reach, so u shove it way down deep. instead of actually trying to change the world into a better place.

Working at the FBI is a job.

I see people bury mistakes, lie, conceal evidence, and generally abuse power all the time.

The FBI is given wide discretion, its certainly not preposterous to think Comey would sanction a weak investigation into Clinton (whom he'd need to court to keep his job), and similarly collect dirt on Trump when he knows he's out the door.

This is office politics 101.

Wars always cause casualties, cause costs and sacrifice. Even the successful wars in history, economic or military, have seen the later winner worse off while the war was still ongoing.

It's ultimately a political question and not one of ideology: do you believe that Trump's trade war against China is justified and has a realistic potential to be successful in the end?

If the answer is yes, then it makes sense for the society to share the burden of this "war", i.e. to help those who - by no fault of their own - got into the crossfire.

I mean sure, if you want to just make stuff up, cool. But I don't believe things without evidence.
