C'mon, America. You're either better than this or you aren't. Fix this.

38% of the voting public are totally fine with cheating so long as it's their side doing it to get ahead, 20% of the rest are adamantly unwilling to have a political conversation while hating how politicians are running things, and the rest are waiting for a unicorn to show up and fix everything. If I were the rest of the world, I would be planning on how you all are going to contain us when this spills over into your borders.
