and, Oh by the way …
“….American political system “dysfunctional,” riddled with “brain-dead partisanship” and permanent campaigning. …. American people needed to deliver a “shock” to Congress by voting incumbents out en masse and replacing them with people interested in reforming the process and governing for the good of the people, rather than deep-pocketed special-interest groups.”

The problem is Americans don’t vote enough and when they do, they make no sense.
Vote in a democrat for President and then turn around and vote in a Senator (in Massachusetts of all places) to take any hope the President had of getting his agenda through Congress. Which is what I thought Americans wanted when they voted him in? Very confusing to me.
I do agree until the American public does get fed up, our federal and state governments (at least in NY) will continue to get very little work done that matters.
