    Or perhaps the problem is just the dated US election and governmental system as a whole that is intrinsically less democratic than most of the remaining monarchies are by now?

      If only it were that easy… European countries with supposedly “better” burgoise democracies are in decline too. The crisis of capitalism is universal. You can’t reduce it to a crisis of democracy, though that’s part of it. It’s also a crisis of production, nature, unawaged reproductive labor and imperialism. All of this has to be addressed at the same time.
