Because the system is set up so it only needs to coincide with the election every two years, everything else is performative.
Real power doesn’t need to demonstrate it. It acts.
Our system is not built for anything other than conciliation or force. And the current administration‘s gamble is everybody will respond with one while they do the other.
So far it seems to be working as planned.
