There's so much rot, it's hard to catalog it all. And add to that the 18th mass shooting in the country in just the first two months of the year, which has placed the burden of fixing this broken aspect of our society onto the shoulders of teenagers:https://www.abc57.com/news/parkland-students-say-we-are-going-to-be-the-last-mass-shooting …

We are a leaderless, flailing, depressed, internally hostile country led by a narcissistic, erratic, kleptocratic, wannabe Putin. We are so far from the kinds of good leaders this country has occasionally produced it's hard to fathom there ever was a Lincoln or an Obama.
