As bad as the divisions and societal breakdown and moral dissolution seems to be in the USA for an observer on the other side of the Atlantic, things are even worse in Europe and the UK as far as I can see. I believe that as long as your First Amendment remains, the USA can still emerge from this - however it ends - as the exemplar of true representative democracy in its pure sense : "people power".
The rest of us in the former democracies are relying on it !
My parents were immigrants from Europe post WW2. They knew that this country held a promise of freedom and prosperity for those who worked to maintain those two ideals. That’s the crux of the matter. Freedom is not guaranteed for those who take it for granted, and neither is prosperity. This country is worth fighting for. Yes, indeed!
I hope we have a country worth saving. At present, I believe most other countries think
the left controls our country and are watching it deteriorate.
The big problem is what would be the the condition that would satisfy most Americans?
It appears that the past 10-12+ years all of us are tearing each other down. It is sad to watch and
some of us make every effort to avoid it. There needs to be a strong individual that will flip this raft back upright. Many feel like just coping with the insanity. Seriously, insanity.
