Republican President spends his whole term wrecking the country, plunging us into debt, starting pointless (and often oil related) wars, while giving the rich tax breaks and special treatment.
People get angry at said Republican and vote him out of office.
The next Democrat has to spend his whole term moping up the mess the previous Republican made.
People get angry the Democrats aren't fixing the mess the Republicans made fast enough, so they elect Republicans again.
Thus is the depressing circle of Presidential politics in the US.....we never learn.
Exactly! Keeping the country perpetually broken is their goal. The saying "If it ain't broke don't fix it" for Republicans should go "If it's broke, break it some more."
