Harry Truman called it.

"The people don't want a phony Democrat. If it's a choice between a genuine Republican, and a Republican in Democratic clothing, the people will choose the genuine article, every time; that is, they will take a Republican before they will a phony Democrat."

~Harry Truman, May 17th, 1952

and they pick the worst candidates.
The rest of the world sees it and has to suffer because of it too. It's embarrassing to travel. ALWAYS tell people that you're from Canada.
