      The fact that the SCOTUS can basically do whatever the fuck they want, the electoral college making elections basically pointless if you live in the opposite area as your political views, Gerrymandering, a legislative branch that never gets anything done, a government that shuts down whenever people don’t agree instead of solving issues, and a two party system that just gives people two shitty choices just to name a few.

      I shouldn’t really have to list all the problems with the system when we all deal with the consequences on a daily basis regardless of which party you are affiliated with. We are all getting constantly fucked but spend all our time removed at our neighbors about which side of the political spectrum they are on when it’s just as fucked no matter who is in charge.

        No please keep listing the problems :)

        What did Democrats do about these systemic issues when they controlled Congress?
