you may have missed what I stated earlier: average joe’s opinion does NOT matter in the US. The US is controlled from sea to shining sea by their 1% elites. It is their money that finances both Democrats and Republicans. 1% owns media houses, law firms, lobby groups, university presidency, venture capital, large corporations. They pay 40% of all federal taxes. They write laws for the average joe. They have institutionalized corruption under the so-called lobby firms.
do you know the price tag of the recent presidential elections, the most expensive in us history? $14 billion dollars.

You could have built several high speed rail lines in India with that money. LOL. Where do you think the $14 billions come from: from elites all over the world, including a large portion from CCP.
This is how the US works - money talks. And CCP has plenty of money cars to play.
