   Trump won and accomplished nothing, he was President only in name.

     @Dicer Power in the US is probably the most obscured that we have seen in any modern setting. Everything we are seeing is ultimately downstream of that, because as things get worse and people try to change things to adjust, those power relationships will assert themselves.
     
     Looking at history is the only guide we have to what exists.

     @sickburnbro @Dicer Democracy is a political obfuscation engine.

     @BobsonDugnuttHB @Dicer This isn't a feature of democracy in general, any society with a bureaucracy is going to have this.
     
     I think what happens is that by the nature of democracies they are much more prone to forming bureaucracies.
     
     You can even see historically kings where they are weak and the country is run by "advisors" - but it's like that even when they aren't feebleminded. Lots of power which is undocumented.
