I see your point. It's easy to forget that a single state in the US is as large as an European country. And the federal government is more like our EU Government. Some far more distant institution to my daily life, where I also have some trust issues from time to time and less insight (still I feel like an EU citizen and don't want Germany to disband like some do, don't get me wrong).
Anyways I hope the US society will find a solution that fixes this sad situation. It's sad to hear and see such stories and think about the victims of such political failiure (not that such failure would not happen here too, especially the lobby influence an corruption is a thing in Germany - sometimes it feels like our Country is run mostly by special interest). The US once was such an inspiring country, I really hope you find a way to overcome all this.
