I am a Brit, but let me say this: The American people will survive these 4 years (hopefully less), the political system is what needs to die a death before it can get better. Even though Trump is terrible and an absolute tosser, he is a changing force in the status quo. Because of him, two things are happening: The Republican party is becoming a clownshow and can never be taken seriously, and the Democratic Party is starting to show signs of reform.

I'm not sure what you're talking about.  They just reorganized the party to reinforce the older mentality.  If anything they seem determined to hold onto power as a hibitual loser than discuss any meaningful reform.

Groups like Justice Democrats and other reform groups are growing. More people are stepping up and going against the corporates. That's why I said signs. People like Perez will not last when the base is not there.
