I was thinking about just this thing the other day. Back in the day congress had actual intellectual debates and got things done with compromise.
Now it seems everyone votes party lines and to make themselves and donors rich. 99.9% of them absolutely do not care about truth or any virtue that made the US what it is.
Shame really. Maybe the next iteration of a republic might learn from these mistakes. Might be another few hundred years before the chance at an ethonostate republic happens though. One of our goals should be to clearly document why this iteration failed so our descendants might learn the lessons that we picked up on too late
