I know to follow the money rather than trusting old guys with money to do the right thing. If the Democratic Party is getting Chamber of Commerce money now then the people they're lobbying for (big business) are probably going to get the better end of the stick.

Those are all douchebag things to do imo, and I hope that starting in January, some of that may be undone. In the meantime I think adidasss is right: 74 million US citizens have said they don't want to be douchebags anymore.

We were an oppressor lording over the 3rd world with aircraft carriers and unfair trade relations for a hundred years before Trump took office. Why don't you ask the Philippines if they think we'll all of a sudden turn out to be good people seeing as they were the first people to see how we dealt with international power and influence and then spent half a century being massacred by us.
