What do you have in an American Democracy when you have a party and a president

with no honor or Integrity?

For all intent and purposes, a DICTATORSHIP. That is what the last four years has taught me.

Seems like our constitution is based on the honor system. It works when
you have honorable people running it. Not so well when you don’t.
It's been an ugly ass four years.

Better days ahead.

All the supposed "safeguards" are predicated upon congress or the cabinet acting accordingly. If a party controls all of that then its all gone.
