My point with this whole thing was to show how we (US) don't mean a dang thing to politicians (THEM) and I guess people got confused by the example I used. It's not that difficult to understand. US is the people and THEM are the politicians. 

Does anyone in any way misunderstand what I'm saying?

Not at all.  But my point is, them are us.  We elect them.  We have a democratic republic.  Those people you call "them" come straight out of our own ranks.  We vote them into office.   Blame them all you want for how they act or what they do, but ultimately, WE are responsible.

But also, I agree with Mike.  To say, "they all ought to be guillotined" is pointless bluster.  It's a great way to lower the IQ level of the conversation, but that's about it.

Come on Marty, “We” don’t elect “Them” any more.  The parties and the MSM choose whom “We” have the choice of casting a ballot for and the politicians they offer up are 2 sides of the same coin.  Trump was an anomaly that both sides of the establishment hated because he didn’t play by the rules and the establishment will never allow that to happen again.
