It is a dormant period now in the political arena. Hillary appears to be winning handily over Trump, and a foregone conclusion is that things are on the right track. Of course, we should believe that the Clinton's will have their hand back in the cookie jar, but bring good things to us, right? Yet with the onslaught of red-blooded savage beatings coming with football season, the uproar of the Trump base will be quickly riled up. Imagine the concoction of football and Trump reigning down upon the millions of unemployed males ages 18-42. They will have something to fight for and believe in, and it will get them through their week with a sense of pride and optimism.
No longer will the college educated males look down upon them with pity, as they cling to their jobs with a combination of wit and viciousness unseen in the last two millienia. In fact many of them will be tempted to join the crowd of Trump supporters and lean back into what they originally were fooled into supporting. It took months and month of propaganda like social media campaigns just to win them back.
It is poetic. A Billionaire, hijacking the party, turning against for what has catered to the likes of his kind. Biting the hand that feeds him, and hijacking the hijackers. Trump took their party away from them, and fractured the arena that they have laid siege to for decades. Meanwhile every concerned, and spin savvy citizen is screaming bloody murder, and hailing never Trump. It is a new politics of an up and coming generation, vying for legitimacy, power, and respect.
Football is very central to this generation and should not be discounted as a mere seasonal joyous occasion. It could very well lead to a red blooded surge, with girlfriends, and female followers in tow. The hope is that the better senses will get a hold of the masses and keep them from voting with passion. In any event the alternative is not much better.
Which brings me to the central tenant of the campaign, Crookedness. This is not a light term to be thrown about. Mostly because power is at stake and we all know what power does.(see previous sentence if you do not) Hillary will create an undertone of a notion that it is ok to be a little crooked. Hell, anyone who's anybody has had a little power and is crooked. That is the fatal error, the one that will allow the agenda to be skewed in the favor of the moneyed interest who are already turning fate toward themselves. They have emergency caves for situation such as these, where massive hysteria can lead to a huge demand for the truth. They will bury the truth, by utilizing yet another one of their assets. This time it will take the shape of returning to "work" and going back to business as usual. You will see it in football season, you will see it in the media, and most importantly you will see it in your relationships with people all around you. You will assume that it the right course of how things should be, you will be wrong.
It is the seal for that economic tradeoff that has seeped into our countries deep sense of political liberty. It is the difference between safety and security and freedom. Playing it safe on the football field yield rewards, playing it safe in the political arena upsets the herd. After all, what we get from the media is spoon fed nonsense , and their goal is to make us accept these facts hook, line and sinker. Then we can go about our business as if it was our own, not knowing of course that we just checked it away.
Election day is coming soon, and the excitement of politics has been deflated. Perhaps that is good thing, because for once we can take a look at what is really happening and root out the corrupt forces and make them bend to our will. The only question is, will our pride, passion, and our inability to accept wrongdoing get the better of us?
