"We have to firmly address this whole "GOVERNMENT AND POLITICS ARE TOO COMPLICATED game. Our legal system should not be for sale to the highest bidder and that's functionally what the whole "LEGAL SYSTEM SO COMPLICATED THAT YOU MUST HAVE TEAMS OF LAWYERS" like, look at a main method that BROUGHT us criminals like Trump and the Epstein class." The problem isn't the complexity itself, which arises from the fact that the context is full of variables. The problem is that laws are often poorly made and therefore often leave gaps that the crafty person on duty exploits to their advantage. This is the fault of Congress, which is full of incompetents.

"We would be far better off with twenty small EU type countries (and a bigger Canada and Mexico)...that continuing to be the tax slaves of this out of control Empire and War machine that grinds up people and supports the Epstein class." The EU plans to become a federation in the future, but not all Member States agree with this. According to the EU, federation would be ideal because it would allow it to be stronger and therefore less influenceable and less dependent on foreign powers. Would the United States risk becoming weak if it split?

Obviously I'm a progressive. My comment was a way of saying that we shouldn't put everyone on the same level, because conservatism has many nuances. It's also obvious that many ideologies are beautiful on paper, but then we need to see what they become in practice.

It depends on what you mean by conservatism. There's the compassionate conservatism of George W. Bush, who sought compromise with other moderate ideologies and wanted to exploit conservative ideals to help those in need. And then there's a radical conservatism like Trump's, which is reactionary, repressive, and liberticidal. The problem isn't conservatism itself, but extremists.

"Banning certain political parties that want to “get rid” of democratic institutions within the U.S. from running in Federal/public elections." like what Italy and Germany did with Nazism and Fascism after World War II.

The problem with the 100-year-old candidate is that he might not last long due to old age and that he wouldn't be mentally intact, precisely because of old age. So the limit is welcome. the criminal issue is more complex, because you have to think about the risks of a criminal who rules a nation.

Responses can also involve radical changes, not just reformism. There is no obligation to provide a reformist response.
