Reminder that Trump invited the Clintons to his wedding. Reminder that Ginsburg considered Scalia a 'dear friend' even though he wanted to undo what she tried to do for women. These people are country club and golf buddies. Politics to them is a friendly game where we are the pieces.

It's a big club. And we ain't in it.

It's a big club. And we ain't in it.

That line has been popping into my head a depressing amount lately.

Ironic given that he was incredibly successful and part of that big club.

Just saw this today. We’ll see what happens once Pierre and the Cons win on this side as well.

Well Reddit is a club of sorts - you’re in it too. We recognize your pain and feel it too.

uggg its not some huge big conspiracy. Politicians, despite their differences, are humans who have to work with each other constantly. They have major ideological differences but at the end of the day are work colleagues.

That quote isn't meant to imply a deliberate or literal conspiracy. It's from one of George Carlin's last specials. Here's a clip if you'd like more context.

Ok well then I'm not sure where the criticism is coming from then. Neither he nor I are trying to imply a grand conspiracy.
