One of the co-hosts (the one who speaks less) points out - "no, they would not lose hope and give" - *and he's right* - and the matter is dropped. The things you think are being done badly aren't flaws, they're features to the ruling class.

If you want his philosophy compressed into a tweet it's: <Government quality is what's important and follows from form and the democratic form is doomed to disaster.> Many words needed to be spent explaining why the US was rich and powerful which seemed to disprove this view.
