The Trump-Republican regime is what happens when a system lacks accountability. Officials with no professional qualifications make policies that fail. A president immune from removal consolidates power and implemetns dangrous policies. Institutions staffed by individuals without expertise give bad advice; when staffed by experts, the executive ignores them. White voters wielded disproportionate power while racial minorities remained underrepresented. Each failure stemmed from the same structural defect: the American system grants authority without requiring competence, evidence, responsibility, or proportional representation.
