There's a reckoning to be had in the United States. I refuse to believe that the right will lay down and take any defeat quietly, and at some point the majority of the left will finally realize that the only way things seem to get done these days is to either ignore the rules entirely or twist them to your own personal gain. We're already at a point where billionaires have more direct control of our lives than politicians, and it's not like we can hold elections to replace the ones who can't or don't want to run the country properly. What makes democracy work is the idea that if the system really isn't working, you can change it. Elect new politicians, push through new rules, discuss things with your representatives, somehow you'll always be able to change things. Until the day you can't.
