Trump endorsed the campaigns of Cornel West and Jill Stein over the weekend, saying they're spoilers who will help him win in the fall by chipping way at Biden's support.
I would prefer proportional voting, and that would work for Congress. It isn’t really a workable thing when electing an individual, tho I would not mind seeing some candidates split down the middle so only half goes into the office.
Yes I can understand that, we don’t have elections of individuals in our democracy, the government is chosen by the parlament, among the usually about 12 parties that represent the people.
If the government performs very poorly, parlament can vote a lack of confidence, in which case a new government must be formed, and the Prime minister can choose to have a new election.
The idea of a president running the government is extremely problematic IMO. In Denmark there is absolutely zero doubt that no member of parlament or the government or otherwise are above the law.
There are protections against frivolous lawsuits for EU politicians, but that protection goes away as soon as they leave/lose their seat, and is always removed if there is an actual case.
Unfortunately we saw that last year, where the protection was lifted for a corrupt member of EU parlament from Greece.
Whatever happens, I wish the Americans best of luck, unfortunately it seems like it’s very much needed.
