    Alright? India is bigger…

    Spending more time switching over than we do on our whole election cycle is bonkers.

      India is not a good example of a well run country.

      The fact is, the US Government is the largest and most complicated organization on the planet. It has the most power of any country and controls the world’s single largest economy, upon which most other countries depend (especially the developed ones).

      That’s why it takes longer. We don’t want to fuck it up. The UK has some real cabbage head PMs cycling through, and shot themselves in the foot by leaving the EU. That’s not the best way to argue for your method of government.

        Trump served a four year term as president.

        I didn’t say it was well run, I said it was bigger (which apparently is the metric, but now it isn’t?). Is the US? It can’t even give healthcare to its people.

        That’s why it takes longer.

        I don’t think that’s why.

        That’s not the best way to argue for your method of government.

        Method of changing government, not of how it is run. Most countries do not take months to hand over power with lame duck presidents.
