    There is a need.

    For billionaires, who need a useful idiot they can control. It’s why they’re normalizing electing presidents whose brains do not function properly.

    The 350,000,000 who are not billionaires have no power whatsoever when it comes to selecting the president. Hell, in 2016 a five-minute meeting with a presidential candidate at a party convention cost upwards of $400,000.

    Our only power is local.
