That is a worry.A related problem is public loss of confidence in the leaders of both parties and an attendant loss of confidence in our political system. It drives good people away from politics and less good people toward extreme solutions. The former has been a problem for quite a few years, and the latter is becoming more of a problem by the day. It also makes it very difficult for anybody who is trying to be reasonable and make things work to form any coalition or even to be heard.
