The US is (nearly) a failed state

I served the Empire for 20 years. I love what we say our country stands for, the principles we say we hold dear.
But the ascent and continued occupation of the White House by the mad Emperor Donald alongside the utter failure of Congress to hold him accountable gives lie to our claim to these principles.
Only the Supreme Court seems to be willing to stand up to the Emperor. And their word is law only so far as the Emperor and his legions are willing to tolerate it.
We are walking a dangerous path and November will determine if we stop short of the cliff, or happily walk over it.
