"Growing shares of both Republicans and Democrats say members of the
other party are more immoral, dishonest, closed-minded than other
Americans"
Are Americans right that members of the other party are more immoral, dishonest, closed-mind?
IF YES, does it not make the US a nation of immoral, dishonest, and closed-minded people per their standard?
IF NO, the same question.

foreign policy <https://is.gd/nrzou2>. In the 1990s-2000s, with
regard to the foreign affairs, American politicians, mass media and
mass culture industry have accustomed the society to "triumphalist"
attitude and abuse of the sense of entitlement & righteousness. And
for those who feel entitled and righteous, it's natural to demonize
and denigrate their opponents out of proportion.
In the 2010s, there became fewer opportunities for "triumphalism"
abroad, while more and more various domestic issues began to emerge,
about which different domestic groups have different opinions on
how to solve them. The opposing groups feel themselves entitled and righteous, and expect an outcome that would be "triumphalist" for
them (as they have learned the image of "righteous and triumphalist
America" before, and what kinds of cliches this great America used
to apply to its evil opponents). But this time it all works against
domestic opponents.
Other words, America acted with a sense of impunity for some time,
so that inability to constructively compromise has now become their
cultural habit, which is destroying America from the inside.

IF NO, the same question.Ideals:
Different parties in a multiparty system would learn the good and the bad from each other. They would
together form an upward spiral in delivering better and better democracy governance. Similarly, the
freedom of press would encourage and dissemination of multiple view points. This would allow both
journalists and their readers to learn and improve each other. And work together to make one people
from many.
Democratic ideals were presented to the world like Dorian's picture when he was young. Unfortunately,
American democracy, like Dorian, got corrupted over time. Could US elites accept this reality? Well,
the US media has tried its best to keep Dorian still young and beautiful. But reality tells an opposite
story. And the gap between Dorian young and beautiful and his picture which reflects his essence is
getting bigger and bigger.
In Oscar Wilde's book, the result is tragic. Could US elites find a way out?
