Democracy or demagoguery?

Oh that Romney calling the recent expressions of the electorate demagoguery.  I think not.  it is only when the rich and powerful lose the control that they think that they have on the electorate that they condescend to belittling.  
   I am not a fan of Trump, persay.  But, I love the process that allows people to vote their consciences.  Emotions or prejudices are not called into play when you have a bunch of robots who are taught or pressured into voting in blocks because of false promises that have been made to them.  Now that the promises have been proved to be false and the controllers are wondering what did we do to deserve this overhaul that is happening that name calling is used.
   I think they fear a French Revolution in the politics where everyone who is in there is hauled out of office and a fresh bunch of poor zealots are voted into take their places.  Perhaps that would serve them all right.   The whole bunch of them have done little to lead in this change and technological revolution that has left so many unemployed and unable to pick up the pieces.  Just keep swimming, they encourage and we will see things get better. No we haven't seen things get any better for anybody but congress and the senate.  they get raises and they get taken care of, when they need nothing.  It is their place to get paid to direct us "lower folk" in law and legality.  Anyone who comes up the ladder by the voice of the people is a "demagogue".  Carry the consciences of the people.  Look at what they are saying and beware of dismissing the dismay and being provoked by demagoguery, lest you find yourself in the flames of civil conflict that we cannot assuage.
    Listen to the people and address the concerns.
