With the abuse allegations flying around, even the most ardent supporter of both sides of the isle must agree that none of these men and women in power have our best interests at heart. Power is a addictive substance. It goes to their heads. As such, the American voter MUST be skeptical and question EVERYTHING these people do.
The evil alliances that have developed over the last several decades has been totally exposed. The press was the "checks and balances" on government, and it no longer is. I remember reading about past press failings like "yellow journalism". On the right we see crony's like Billy Kristol, John McCain and Scarborough who simply can not accept the will of the people to vote for someone not connected to the GOP; or the Dems for that matter. Their priorities are to a) win b) lose to the other party but worst of all c) let the people figure it out and quit supporting parties without logic. On the left, we see the NOW, Gillibrand, and the Clintons all being exposed for manipulating whatever they needed to stay in power with the fake mask that it was "for the people". There is no way that they could possibly believe they were acting on behalf of the people, knowing what we now know.
Just this last two weeks we have:
If you don't understand you were "played" by the two parties and their vertical infrastructures of special interests, you never will.
Like it or not, Trump is at the middle of all of this. Both parties hate the guy so much, they simply cannot help themselves. While we are taking a step back, lets hope we get it together and take several steps forward. First and foremost, quit being manipulated by the press and the parties.

Just this last two weeks we have:
- CNN editing video to make Trump look bad while visiting Japan (feeding the coy)
- Newsweek has an article suggesting Trump uses pages from Charles Manson to manipulate the people.
- NYT asking if black kids should be playing with white kids
