MODERATORS
I was saying this the last time around. America is too big and the parties are too polarized, the federal government can't fairly represent all of its constituents at once. At any given time, half of the population is being underrepresented.
Well that's a good point as well it really doesn't help that the Americans have decided to turn their politics into something so tribal.
