    Thank you for pointing that out! Yes, if I’m correct in assuming, Trump serves more as a figurehead, primarily representing ideas gained from the Heritage Foundation. As you mentioned, this reflects the dynamics of the whole party.

    The issue spans both sides, in my experience. While the situation is drastically worse on the Republican side, we must consider that both sides lack true, meaningful political and leadership skills. Leaders today not only need to embrace knowledge of current political ideals but also integrate studies from fields such as psychology, developmental science, and environmental science.

    Furthermore, a leader must possess a level of empathy that is often hard to find. Currently, we tend to vote for candidates who are perceived as the best choices based on their long-standing presence in politics.

    Thank you so much for your insights on this article. It’s crucial to collaborate and raise awareness to build a better future for everyone.
