Sorry, Ben, but I’m afraid The American Experiment has failed.

America's now imminent failure is written indelibly in its origins. If you are creating a nation, do not cooperate with slavers or anyone like them. They shaped the voting system to this specification. We did not hang them when they committed treason. We allowed them to persist in their myths of rebellion for over a century, and we have allowed an open insurrectionist to seek and hold office. All because our founding fathers did not find slavery to be a deal breaker.

You're not wrong....

I'll have to come back to this to read when I'm less charged with emotion with the absolute insanity of my fellow voters

Not wrong but not helping. Sorry, I'm in a similar situation mentally. I'm often wrong in life but being right about this, the joke is fully on me.
