The President and Republicans resoundingly say NO.

As long as a big chunk of the population aligns with self-interest, corruption & devaluing ethics, they will continue to vote for similar people.

The end result is a long civic lesson in why virtues, strong ethics and trust are all invaluable as foundations of a prosperous society. Hard times create strong men, as they like to say.

Unfortunately, even the other party would say no if they ran the country right now. Both sides are guilty of this. Thanks for reading.

This is not a 'both sides' issue to anyone paying attention to the facts.

I'm an outside observer (Not American) and I have to say that Republicans are on another level. If Obama had done 5% of what Trump & Republicans have done, he would have been physically crucified.

The Democrats are faulted for not being perfect and fixing all problems instantaneously. The bar for Republicans is in Hell.
