It might seem like an opinion if you're uneducated about the American political system, but if you kill the negativity and actually go study how our government is balanced, you would realize that Congress represents the people, the president is a necessary function within our political framework, but the intention was never for a single person to represent the entire country, or we wouldn't have an entire legislative branch dedicated to just that.

To go further, there is an inherent expectation that the president might go against the wishes of the people, which is why we have two other branches of government designed to enforce checks and balances.

This check and balance system has completely failed due to mass coordination, but the idea is that individual governmental positions have theoretical pressures against corruption, the possibility of corruption is built right into our Constitution.

Lol. You're a product of the system. And you believe what the system tells you. If you'd actually go and study how your system works, you would realize your non sense you're typing. Either you're an uneducated kid, still have time to grow up, or the one who's been first in line during covid vaccinations.

PS: you didn't answer the question, how many presidents US have?

Your comment contains so many baseless assumptions, there is nothing to gain from speaking to someone with such a closed, negative mind. I don't think you have the capacity to understand how wrong you are, and your vagueposting of "go and study how your system works" is such a lazy, hollow argument.

If you cannot explain how "the system works" and need to ask me to go learn myself, then you demonstrably don't know what you're talking about. You're employing a bag full of argumentative fallacies in lieu of providing a coherent, effective argument.

So many words and 0 to gain out of it. Why would you even write this? Don't have where to offload your rubbish?
