The USA is a dictatorship and a pseudo-democracy
Most Americans want a higher minimum wage, legalized recreational marijuana, and an end to mass incarceration. It is mainly the tyranny of Republicans that blocks all three things.

The Senate is not ruled by the majority as in a real democracy. It is ruled by the 40% of the day that wants to filibuster a bill.

It should be possible to override the President's veto by a simple majority. Basically, the President should not be able to block legislation. The President's job should be to execute legislation as part of the executive branch. Presidents alone should not be able to start wars. Congress should be able to end wars by a simple majority vote.
