Well, what is your prescription to fix this?
There is no direct political fix.
The solution is a sea-change in the hearts and minds of Americans, at which point they will elect better leaders. Which means the solution is cultural, not directly political, as one would expect in a society where the government is a reflection of the will of the people.
“The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars,
But in ourselves...”
I recommend that regular citizens have parties in communities across the nation to construct a gallows in every town square.
Somebody might then get the message.
