It's really depressing how the US system seems to have existed "on belief". Once somebody set out to damage or destroy it, away it went. Pretty much without a whimper.

As I recall, the system was set up with 3 branches of government in tension. Obviously, that was naive.

For what it's worth. It's a democratic decision at the end of the day. It's not one man going about it.

That's assuming that votes were accurately counted and reported by the black box voting machines
