/ world today news/ In the fourth vote for a new speaker of the House of Representatives of the US Congress, which took place on October 25, Republican Mike Johnson was elected. That ended three weeks of chaos in the Republican Party over the choice of a new House leader. Generally speaking, the Speaker of the US House of Representatives often serves an average of about 18 years in the chamber. However, the new president has been described by the media as “the most inexperienced president in 140 years”, meaning that all parties can leverage him to advance their own interests. Therefore, the conclusion of the election for the Speaker of the House of Representatives of the Congress may signal the beginning of bigger problems.
For a long time, some deep-rooted problems in the US were masked by the aura of “democracy”. The unprecedented impeachment of the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the extreme individualism that characterized the election process, however, refreshed people’s perception of well-dressed American lawmakers.
Recently, Reuters and Ipsos released a poll showing that two-thirds of the American public believe that politicians from both the Republican and Democratic parties are too obsessed with partisan bickering to do their jobs. The New York Times commented that in 1994 only 6% of Americans had a negative opinion of both political parties, and now that percentage is 28%.
American politicians run the world’s only superpower and should be committed to solving their country’s problems, but now they are among the most capable of creating problems. In doing so, they not only set a bad example for young Americans, but also paralyze the entire nation’s ability to act. And this must be realized, not only within the country, but also by US allies.
