One truth that Trump has spoken is that the system is rigged. The election is rigged. Why in the world would an election be rigged? Is it possible?

If there were no rigging I could not say, day by day, what is going to happen next. Action, when you know it’s coming, is many times easier to anticipate than would be outcomes from a fair election. I say fair election. It is fair to the extent that all having the initiative have an equal chance to rig an election. Opportunities are equal but political power is not. The American public is incredibly stupid. Normally, they will fall for anything that comes from the mouths of those they worship. Convince the public that they are sophisticated in voting for a certain candidate and they will do so. Give them a chance to virtue signal and that’s what they will do.

Any election will be rigged to the degree it’s possible. With a public which is naive and largely ignorant, but that believes themselves to be enlightened, rigging an election is a piece of cake. All it takes is political power.

The 2016 election has been in the process of being rigged, but the political power of the elite, who manage the rigging, has been seriously diminished. The solidarity of the “masters of the universe,” has been falling apart. There is infighting. To rig this election, the elite must be all in and all on the same side. Potential legal issues have caused infighting. Their political puppets have started throwing one another under the bus to save themselves. Clinton supporters are not all friends. They work together because their ambitions are dependent on a certain outcome. A politician who cannot be bought is a threat to the powerful who control government from outside the system.

The media is still supporting Clinton but they are beginning to hurt themselves. Notice that the media is scaling back coverage of the election. That is because Clinton is in serious decline and the news operatives are beginning to fear appearing incompetent and stupid.

The search is on for trash on Trump. They will come up with something between now and election day. When one side is lying and the lies are exposed, changing the subject and accusing the other side is a knee jerk reaction.
