It is an internal US matter showing the world that American democracy
does not work well in the US, let alone elsewhere such as China.

Democracy is not a matter of multiparty and ritualistic election.
To the degree that the two sides can comprise regarding domestic affairs,
the two party system is really not a two party system. For a genuine two
party system, polarization is inevitable. Politics, under this circumstance, is zero-summed.

In contrast, a two party system would not be as polarized if the issues are
the like of how to divvy up a foreign banana republic. A positive summed
game.

It works in it's (frequently) messy way. Our common version may be
"In practice it is not as perfect (friction free) as advertised" :-)

<irony> SCOTUS gave back states right to regulate abortions via laws
introduces by democratic process. Isn't it Yet Another Victory of USA Democracy over overreaching judiciary _delivered by judiciary_ ? ;-)

I do not buy superiority of One Party system.

Unfortunately, more Americans are opposing that kind of "Democratic Victory."

"With 55% of Americans saying they mostly support abortion rights,
56% of Americans oppose the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. ...
A majority of Americans (57%) think the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v.
Wade was politically motivated and not motivated by the law of the land (36%). "

The form of any democracy is a matter to be determined by the people.
No one has to buy the superiority of other nation's democratic system.

The supreme court can now upend a 50 years old of abortion law to abort, they should also can upend the constitutional right to gun ownership too.
