If...

If there were justice in such things, Donald Trump would be held accountable at the end of four years for the jobs he promised to bring back from China (jobs which the Chinese are themselves losing to automation according to a recent Economist article).

He would be asked why the wall isn't built, let alone paid for by Mexico.

Why are more people without health care than before Obama took office?

Why are we not funding fundamental medical research?

Why are hate-crimes up by 200%?

What about the mess in Syria? Has he cleaned that up?

Has North Korea relinquished it nuclear weapons?

Is the deficit lower?

Why are our newly paved roads and rebuilt bridges, paid for with our tax dollars, now private tolls roads / bridges?

Why are Muslim Americans being harassed, threatened, beaten and shot?

Why are police shootings on the rise? 

Why is discrimination against the LGBT community now legal?

If there were justice in such things, the opposition party and the serious news media would ask these questions and not put up with the BS answers that they will inevitably elicit. But there is little hope that the world is just or fair; at least in the political realm, its just crooked.
