In a sane, responsible and sensible society, someone like Trump would never have gotten into the top job.

He would have been thwarted at every step, with a 'Yeah, but no, this dude is incompetent and dangerous!'.

So why America?
Couple of reasons come to mind.

1. Politics is seen as a team sport.
One team has to win, and the other needs to lose.
And people support their chosen team for the silliest of reasons.

As a consequence, any political party or politician who wants to work towards the best for all citizens, is seen as weak or unwilling to 'play the game'.

2. Basic greed. Anti-cooperative mind set.
I need to get mine, and I will walk all over you to get it.

3. Elevating those who 'have made it' - be it riches, or popularity, etc - to some semi deity level and worshiping that.

4. Bluff and bluster and just being arrogant and loud, are seen as positive personal traits.

So yeah, I wish Mary would turn away from analysing Trump (again) and look at the big picture.
Aim her expertise there.

Will America be rid of Trump? Eventually.

Will America turn away from the mass ethos that got him into the White House?
In short, will America ever become a sane, responsible and sensible society?
I doubt it.
