“Political” and “science” are two words that should no longer be connected. They form an oxymoron, at least in their application to contemporary American governmental processes. U.S. politics are ever more becoming irrational.
Americans in increasing numbers vote against their own interests. Many boast about democracy and condemn communism, socialism, and autocracy, but simultaneously discredit U.S. elections. Current conspiracy-brewing among our leaders is growing into a national schizophrenia.
