Dysfunction Junction: Norman Ornstein Tells HM12 Attendees of Current Challenges in Washington
We now have, in effect, a parliamentary system, with no overlap between democrats and republicans, which is it is rooted in a system that does accept a parliamentary system, said Ornstein. This is playing out as “utterly dysfunctional.” This “tribalism” has extended out many states, and the Supreme Court, with innumerable controversial 5-4 decisions.
Bottom Line
• The chasm between republicans and democrats is wider than ever
• This is spilling out to states and the Supreme Court
• Fasten your seatbelts as the coming months will be tumultuous
• But business is booming for political analysts!
