🗣️ On the current state of the US political system:

“The American people are really fed up. They're really unhappy. Their society is falling apart… And the reason why Trump is so popular is that he is the anti-politician. He was never elected to an office, to any office, before running in 2016. And that was, rather than a weakness, that turned out to be a strength. So Americans really just dislike politicians. And the reason they dislike politicians is because the political system, to repeat myself, is falling apart and it's dragging down the political classes with it,” Daniel Lazare, independent journalist and author, told Sputnik.
