‘I think the country is broken, and I don’t mean just the governance of it. It is the very people themselves who are sick and disoriented.’
Agreed.
What do we gain when we win? Some temporary respite from the Communitarian agenda? We see the damage and HAVE to rebuild because that’s who WE are, only to watch ‘Progressives’ destroy (rinse and repeat).

This is what i'm thinking. We gain a temporary respite. (Remember Reagan?) We only halt the movement towards socialism for a little while, and the very next time Democrats get back into power, they resume their successes at advancing us towards the left.

Our problems are systemic. They are the result of perverse incentives, and deviations from the Original founder's plan. Lyndon Johnson figured out he could bribe a big chunk of the electorate with government supplied money, and as a result the Democrats have been in power ever since, and even when they were not, their ideas/ideology still continue to apply serious pressure to move the nation left.
