What Power Brokers?

Now they are power brokers? Where did that come from? All I said in the beginning was that they put Trump in there to help Hillary win, and it backfired on them. Just "they", no bold type, no capital letters. I never said it was a big international conspiracy, or a secret cabal, or anything like that. I seem to remember reading something once about the paper tiger device. I think it comes from India or someplace else where man eating tigers used to be a problem. If the villagers were unable to effectively deal with a marauding tiger, they would make a paper tiger upon which they would vent their rage and frustration. So it is said, even unto this day that, when a person attacks an argument that his opponent never made, he is using the paper tiger device.

Granted, I used to be a card carrying member of the John Birch Society, but that was a long time ago. I have explained, more than once, on this forum, that I no longer believe that they are all in it together, but I still believe that they are all in it. Everybody wants to stick it to the man, but they can't even agree on which man to stick it to. If, as Uncle Ken said, some of the same people who voted for Obama also voted for Trump, it would seem to indicate that they can't even make up their individual minds about which man they want to stick it to. Apparently they don't care who they stick it to, as long as they stick it to somebody. Well this time they stuck it to themselves. Good for them!
