The biggest problem with American politics is the century old cap on representatives. Doubling it would solve a lot of problems.
I do actually support that reform but it would have pretty marginal effects.
What’s broken is human behavior. None of these clowns would be there if we all weren’t so dysfunctional. I really thought, “2016 will be the year the third party wins the presidency, I mean look at those two scumbags out there!”
That election was when I realized, it’s not just Republicans that are the problem.
Read “American Nations” by, iirc Woodard.
The US couldn’t possibly have avoided Civil War Part2.
Now it is going to be having what it has been enforcing/setting-up for decades.
The confederates only pretended to surrender, and now they are using a brilliant remapping of Leninism from left to right, using TV instead of schools for the brainwashing, to produce the proletariat/populist dictatorship that their cabal can highjack the country with, courtesy of Murdoch’s Right-Leninism, and it was all forseeable.
2024 the Biden institution loses, due to the economic-collapse & the rabid backlash of wounded-narcissism,
2025 “democracy” ( actually bribed/“lobbied” “representative” republic, perpetually gaslighting about being democracy ) is decapitated, and the ocean-of-butchery begins begins pouring blood/lives out…
It’ll be about 7 years before total-collapse, from then.
Trump’s already made it clear he backs Russia, not NATO, so Ukraine is hamburger, then.
Pretence/denial/entitlement is the fakest “immune system” there is, and it is going to “protect” nobody.
All preventable, IF everything had been done strategically, for decades, but when you allow moneyarchy to manufacture whole-population broken-parenting, and generations of trashed-lives, and you allow moneyarchy to wage successful war against living wages for workers…
…you don’t have a country, you have a prison that is pretending to be a country, destroying God’s gift to lives for sake of psychopathic machiavellian ego-crimes.
I expect to see Biden’s head on a pike, outside, where the Jan 6 insurrection people were, in early 2025, as a trophy of the new dictatorship.
Human nature has not changed one bit, in the last few millenia…
The sickening denial of everybody, in the situation… “I’m not responsible: I couldn’t have seen it coming!” ??? Bullshit/lies.
It’s been visible for decades, just when & how, were undecided.
And the pseudo-journalism of the left, which “shut down” ( their term ) the diversity of issues & voices, in order to make a nice, conforming only-Biden-institution left…
they’ll never tolerate any responsibility for their part, either.
Humanity is about to get what it invested-decades-in-getting, and it all could have been prevented, if honest & real strategic investment-in-real-worth had been consistently normal, but catering to money’s narcissism was the devotion preferred, so…

Nah, the Republicans being like that are just a symptom of the process of collapse of US empire.
…and the so-called Democratic Party
They function. Maybe not the way many would like. Republicans simply don’t. And worse, Republicans campaign on their malfunction.
Are you kidding? Have you see how many subsidies are given to corporations? And tax custs to the rich?
Seems like they both function very well to serve the interests of the plutocrats that run both parties.
You just disproved your own point. Regardless disingenuous critique like yours isn’t fooling anyone. Well, maybe yourself. But no one else.
My point is that both parties are the same and terrible
Then your point is wrong and baseless. Yes both parties have their problems. As a socialist I’m not going to defend them when they don’t deserve it. But as someone who’s in touch with reality I’m not going to pretend they’re the same either. 1980 really terrified the Democrats. And made them timid to do a little more than go along with what the fascist wanted mostly. They’re slowly breaking away from that. But people like yourself certainly are not the solution to the problem.
