The US needs a new constitution and a new model

The existing model assumes politicians will play fair, it never accounted for parties gaming the justice system, presidents ignoring the constitution or politicians being bought by foreign interests. There are no checks and balances if they can just be ignored. It's a platform for fascism.

The only independent branch of the US that could possibly make the changes necessary to remake America is the military at this point. Political financing means democrats have too much to lose to re-orient the system back to the people.

Citizens united should have triggered it but trump has made it an immediate priority.

The billionaires behind trump should be completely asset stripped so none of them every try another business plot
