But his strict constructionist views might clash with today’s environmental regulations. Meanwhile, political corruption is so normalized that Watergate might as well be ancient history, with scandals like a no-bid reflecting pool contract symbolizing a moral decay that undermines the nation. Yet, America’s enduring promise as a land of opportunity — built by generations chasing hope and belonging — remains a powerful force, uniting diverse lives in shared progress. Looking ahead, if Democrats take the House in 2026, the focus must shift from revenge to problem-solving: tackling debt, securing Social Security, confronting climate change, and reforming campaign finance to restore the people’s sovereignty over money. And in the U.S.-Iran relationship, a toxic cycle of conflict and failed peace talks continues, raising urgent questions about whether this destructive pattern can ever be broken.
