I think anyone who feels positive about the path America is own is delusion and needs psychiatric evaluation.
Politicians aren't scared. In fact I think they're laughing their asses off and feel more secure than ever. There are those who stand on some principles and get pummeled by the electorate. That's what the system is supposed to do. But there are some who promise exactly what the electorate want to hear and then on the first day in office, start back-peddling and dropping or watering down expectations, which is exactly what has occurred.
Same song, new verse. They're laughing, we're paying.
