The American Experiment is not merely a rhetorical euphemism for the challenges of self-governing a free society. We remain in the generational experiment to evaluate the control systems for such a government. In general, the margin of error has been tolerable, and the nation's production has been tremendously beneficial for the modern world. However, the persistent corruption and investigations should be noticeable symptoms of the inadequacy of the government's checks and balances, and the increasingly cantankerous political discourse and social disorderliness that we are enduring should be reciprocal symptoms of the errors in the government's design.

The quote by John Adams, stating that "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other," emphasizes the importance of moral and ethical values in governance. Adams believed that a constitution alone cannot secure the stability and prosperity of a nation without the virtuous and ethical nature of its citizens. This perspective highlights the need for a moral compass in the individuals who govern and are governed, suggesting that ethical values and spiritual beliefs are essential for a just and equitable society.

The American Experiment is being tested to it's very limits. I'm not sure the Founding Fathers ever envisioned an American Political Party acting like a hostile foreign entity and taking over the Free Press.

They did, that's why Adams said what he did in #5.

Both sides have rejected religious virtue and a moral compass...That it's one side doing so more brazenly is really immaterial.

In their minds America is too big to fail, not realizing that it has already failed. We are living in a rich and powerful but failed country. What is left is the fall of America.

I disagree. There is a difference between individuals losing their ethical and moral compass and an entire party working together with the Press to undermine and divide the country.

Does this dude, or anyone in his orbit, have a moral compass?

Worse, they believe what they are doing is right.

What does "the fall of America" mean in your mind?

Where "right" means keeping their personal and their Party's power in perpetuity. Certainly not "right" for the citizens.

Com'on Tucker, Lindsey Graham is always entertaining.

Whether he does or not is irrelevant to this discussion.

If the citizens keep buying what they're selling why not keep selling it?

Engaging in this false moral equivalence is itself unethical and destructive. The Left has continuously rejected religious virtue, whereas the Right has been been its defender and incessantly criticized for doing so.

Proof that TDS is a real mental illness. Democrats elected a freaking commie to run NYC and they elected an A.G. in Va. who texted about a fantasy to shoot and kill a republican and his family.

The Right comes closer but still no cigar.
