> it's that long-trusted political institutions are falling apart, and nobody knows how much further they have to go, or if they'll be able to be put back together. Or... we're witnessing a rebalancing of power where an executive branch will no longer have carte blanche and there will once again be a balance of power between the three branches of government (in the US at least, can't speak to how other countries do their politics). One can hope at least.
