In your mind, what is most concerning about the state of American politics today?
I think the most distressing aspect of American politics today is the lack of civil discourse on any issue. Pick an issue, and Americans try to distill often complex topics to a single tweet of 140 characters. The discourse lacks depth and educated discussion. Furthermore, politicians try to rally their base with increasingly polarized takes, and each party shifts further and further towards to their respective extremes. Abandoned in the middle, are the nation's centrists who care more for results and general prosperity than token, empty political victories.
