True, but democracy in the U.S. died centuries ago, imo. Power-hungry politicians have, over time, consolidated too much power in the U.S. Senate since its formation. As this slow-forming transition has progressed, our votes have continued to lose the value that democracy demands they have. Now, it just seems like whichever candidate receives the most from lobbyists becomes president. 🤷♂️ Life goes on.
