The Monster and the Jellyfish

Just because I don't like Trump doesn't mean I'm riding with the Democrats. In this episode, I break down the real history both sides don't want you to know.

The GOP — the Monster. Built by Nixon's Southern Strategy. Supercharged by Reagan, who closed mental health facilities, weaponized the War on Drugs against Black and brown communities, ignored the AIDS crisis, and bloated the military budget beyond reason. Every Republican since just added another floor to that house of destruction.

The Democrats — the Jellyfish. Spineless and floating. Bill Clinton smiled in our face, played a saxophone on Arsenio Hall, then signed the crime bill that locked up our communities. His wife called our kids super-predators. Obama — the best of the worst — managed the country but never led it. And the last three primaries gave us two Trump presidencies.

Both sides serve the same masters. Same corporations. Same lobbyists. Same table. We're not invited.

As a Christian, a thinker, and a man with glasses and common sense — I refuse to choose between the one that bites me and the one that watches me bleed.

It's time to stop picking teams and start thinking for yourself.

Now quote me on that.
