Interestingly enough, Maxum, I agree with a lot of what you have to say (including the part about political discussions on this forum), although I'm probably not as cynical about the current situation as you are.

I do not agree, however, with your claim that people are "ignorant" if they think that they actually have control over the situation from a voter standpoint. In fact, you go on to immediately show why this isn't the case: the Republican establishment does not like Trump, yet he is the party's nominee. He ran as a Republican, he got the votes, and he won the nomination. Voters were clearly in the driver's seat when it came to choosing the Republican nominee, despite the desires of the party insiders.
