Politics have been a little slow? I guess if the President isn't "dominating the news cycle" with his incompetence, corruption or criminal behaviour, you think things are "slow".
Good governance isn't a reality TV show fully of drama and cliffhangers. Good governance is quiet, efficient, and barely noticeable. If you're aware of your government, it's doing things very badly.
You haven't the vaguest idea of good governance because it departed when Reagan was elected. It's taken 40 years for the Republican rot to do it's work, but the right has destroyed unions, schools, and your infrastructure. The middle class is in decline, and your nation is weak, deeply in debt, and sliding into an authoritarian dictatorship.
And you can't wait for it to happen.
