It’s a shame that we in the US did not listen to Stephen Walt and John Mearsheimer for the past few decades. We would have been doing both ourselves and the world a huge favor if we had taken their advice.

Get rid of lobbying and lobbyists in the US period, and your politics will be much better. Most countries don't have lobbyists in their political system like Europe and Asia. Don't know which politician from South East Asia said that lobbying is a corrupt system and lobbyists are greedy and corrupted
