If a handful of memes from Russian for-profit bot farms seeking Facebook ad revenue can almost topple 'the greatest democracy in the history of the world' then it ain't worth shit and you just pack it up now.

Private business is more powerful than American democracy?
Though honestly that is not a very high bar considering what passes for democracy in Usania.
