The inability to build State policies on basic issues allows minority groups in influential positions to obtain enormous returns. Authoritarian regimes observe with delight this weakness of polarized democracies.

The U.S. unblocking of aid to Ukraine has turned into an ordeal due to mere politicking.

The future of NATO is uncertain, if the future of the US economy is uncertain.
