Everything else on that list is a subsidiary.

How could there possibly be a "uniparty". We're suffering from white fragility fueled backlash.

Most of Biden’s appointed judges to date are women, racial or ethnic minorities – a first for any president

Nearly two-thirds of the federal judges President Joe Biden has appointed so far are women, and the same share are members of racial or ethnic minority groups.

rump nominated 57 to the two highest courts, the youngest he could find. There are only 188 seats combined on those two courts..

Trump's judicial appointments reflect a serious lack of diversity​

"None of his 53 confirmed appeals court judges is Black. Not a single one. That makes Donald Trump the first president since Richard Nixon to go a full first term without selecting a Black nominee"

53, plus the 3rd, 4th, and 5th consecutive G.O.P. nominations of white Roman catholics to the Supreme Court and Trump's 54th appeals court
nomination, two months after the article above, of a white male to fill Justice Barrett;s vacated seat!

The number 1 problem in America today, same as in Canada, is that too many people are uneducated voters and they simply vote for the guys and gals who promise to give them them most free stuff. Government as sugar daddy is all they want.

.,.,. 'kay.

Or is it the people who own 89 percent of the stock own those they finance into elected office, and invest heavily in triggering
the least educated voters into voting in the best interests of wealthiest donors to the G.O.P. instead of in the voters' own best interests.

Forget about who you're voting for, or voting against. What is the #1 problem in America? Does the #1 problem impact your personally or society as a whole?

Top Five statista:

1. The Government / Poor Leadership - 21%
2. Immigration - 20%
3. High cost of living / Inflation - 13%
4. The Economy - 12%
5. Unifying the Country - 6%

Top Five Pew Research Center:

1. Strengthening the Economy - 73%
2. Defeating against Terrorism - 63%
3. Reducing the influence of money in politics - 62%
4. Reducing Health Care Costs / Improving Education / Making Social Security Sound - 60%

Based on those two surveys, here are your options.

Abortion - Pro-Life policies, pro-choice policies, protecting birth control.
Economy - Jobs, wages, stock market, 401ks, U.S trade policy
Education - Making it affordable, improving the quality, teaching positive morals
Government Corruption - Poor/idiotic/corrupt leadership, the influence of money in politics, supporting fair and free elections.
Health-Care - Making health care more affordable, increasing access to health-care
Immigration - Illegal immigration, migrant crisis, crimes committed by illegals
Inflation / High Cost of Living - You're concerned with the high cost of living: ability to purchase goods and services, purchase a house.
Social Security - Upgrading the social security system to make it more solvent.
Terrorism - Defending home and abroad on the threats of terrorism and bigotry.

I added abortion to the line-up for obvious reasons. If you're voting to stop Trump from being President or wanting to stop Biden for getting a second term, then your answer is Government Corruption. There are only

The aggression, ill-humour and intolerance of large numbers of US citizens. Your nation is plagued by factionalism, prevalent in all the issued you list. Imo.
 
The fools who want a nuclear war with Russia.
 
I vote government corruption.

They are supposed to be held to a higher standard. When is that going to start happening?

Not even getting into Trump, because that’s a given. There is NO reason George Santos should have been allowed to stay in office as long as he did. Politics should have nothing to do with the law. If you break the law, you pay the consequences, no matter what little letter you have beside your name.
 
Progressives maliciously trying to violate the Second Amendment.

Willful and deliberate manipulation of the American people by those who have a vested financial interest in controlling the American economy (and who would REALLY like to control the whole of the world's economy) for their own benefit.

But you can't talk about that in polite company.
 
Poor leadership, clearly.

My answer was "other" - I don't know why you're so confused.
 
There is too much public participation in the way the government runs.
 
There is no more dangerous or imminent threat to America than the threat to our form of government.

The number 1 problem is Too Much Government. Whether it is Republicans banning abortions or Democrats banning guns, both sides think getting elected means getting to shove your programs down everybody else's throat. There is no moderation. There is no thought of managing the people's business in a businesslike manner, as economically as possible. Let alone any thought of the government having a light footprint, so that people are not aware of it every day. People run for office in order the kick other people around, Not to serve the interests of the people.
 
Not just American problems but global problems

1) massive socio-economic inequality
2) stemming from number 1, climate change and environmental destruction

And because the powers that be don't want these issues to be looked at much less solved, they have introduced

3) White supremacy, bigotry, and fascist movements in general that tell the problems are not 1) and 2), but rather minorities, refugees, queers, leftists, and anyone considered other.

I voted for immigration, but I think it should have read "the border" rather than immigration. I think the open border is the #1 problem in America today and it's now greatly impacting MANY other categories like homelessness, healthcare, economy, housing, education, crime/safety, drug use and overdoses and much more. There is very little the open border is not impacting as these illegal numbers exponentially grow.

The border is not open.
 
Other - Democrats

Democrats are the cause of most problems today. From schools, to taxes, to spending, to international strife...Democrats are the base cause for just about every problem.
 
People are Brain Washed by the Media and DEM's ! They honestly think America is a DEMOCRACY !!!


They think People of Color CAN'T get ID so we should not have Voter ID Laws!


They think if someone "IDENTIFIES" as something , then everyone else in the world, need to Play Pretend too, so
those people don't get sad.

And the DEMs / Libs are trying to DESTROY America and her fundamental Principles.
