The donkey and elephant are walking arm in arm, laughing their asses off while stomping on Uncle Sam, surrounded by bags of fucking money.

Meanwhile, the politicians and their wealthy benefactors keep collecting their checks. We celebrate elections like victories, but what the fuck have we actually won?
