USA 2017-2020: An Ungovernable Nation?

• zerohedge.com by Charles Hugh Smith

Regardless of who wins the presidency, a much larger question looms: will the U.S. be ungovernable 2017-2020? There are multiple sources of the question.

One is of course the remarkable unpopularity of the two candidates for the presidency. For all the reasons that are tiresomely familiar, whomever wins the presidency will remain deeply unpopular with roughly 40% of the adult populace.

Though we can't say "never," let's say it's "extremely unlikely" that fans of Hillary Clinton will cotton to Donald Trump, or vice versa: both candidates have been public figures for decades, and it is highly unlikely that the usual "I will serve all the people" speech given by the new president will change many minds.
