In Europe, the rise of the Far Right is only due to the Middle and Left letting people down, the next set of elections will show Europeans disgust for the Middle and Left.

The US does have a problem with its political system. Can candidates follow Trump's lead on things like Migration and Trade? Can they see the politicians represent the people giving them money from those that represent them?

Judging on some of the posters here, that's clear no.
