176. Progressivism is extinct if Trump wins

There will be no national parks, America will be sold to private
corporations and foreign interests, our military will barely function,
and America will be in full retreat from its current place of world
leadership. Once all that is gone, you're not going to get it back.
You have no plan to purge the crooks, no party apparatus, no
political machine, just millennials who attend rallies in large numbers.
It takes political power, incumbency, financial smarts to win elections.
The crooks are part of the system, officeholding is a part of political
interests, organization for exploitation. Progressives seem to think
they're going to remake capitalism with all electric self-driving cars
and smart phones by stripping out the profit incentive from financial,
employment, and business arrangements. Hippies tried that. The Soviets
tried that. This is reality: no incentives, no money, no money, nothing
happens. No one will fix your car, employ you, or anything else unless
they get paid. Even worker progressive companies must turn a profit.

So don't vote. It's the Achilles heel of democracy that some vote who
don't know what they vote for, some are misled or confused, and the
ignorant make up their minds at the last minute based on emotions.
