These "strict controls" go unenforced, as I explained in my previous message.
The last Presidential campaign had almost $15 billion in campaign financing - orders of magnitude greater than any other country. This is why US politicians provably cater to the rich and ignore the interests of the poor.
As for “airing your dirty laundry”, let me remind you that Nixon, Reagan, W. Bush, and Trump all publicly committed felonies, and not one of them spent even a day in jail.
Finally, the US is not in the top 40 most diverse countries — it isn’t even as diverse as Canada — so I’m really not sure why you are talking about diversity.
The sad fact is that one of your two political parties has publicly announced that it will never accept a presidential election result that is not in their favor, and they have publicly placed secretaries of states who promise to deliberately misreport the election results.
Your last election led to a literal violent revolution! To tout the stability of your government when most independent observers think a failed election is certain in the near-future seems wildly optimistic.
Finally, I'd like to thank you for a polite and civilized answer. It's a very difficult time now. People are strung out and angry. I really appreciate you taking the time to be courteous!
