That's what worries me. Both parties are poloraized. Compromise, a word that in my opinion is the very core of statecraft, is now considered weakness. I fear our country will crumble into ruins all around us, and both parties will still be standing there, pointing fingers at each other, with neither having done anything to prevent it.
