Damon Lindelof's other show The Leftovers is a "Mystery Box" show, but it's pretty clear from the beginning that it's set up mainly to study how the characters cope with such a hypothetical, so I was okay with the mystery never being resolved. But Lost is not like that. & Pluribus is no Leftovers.

I don't believe in this "winging it" approach. I tend to think the ending is the most important part of a story. If they want options they should write several endings, but they should at least have a strong *sense* of how the narrative should/could end.

It's a cop-out. But they very often explain it by saying "But that's just like life, life doesn't have a resolution!" Just an excuse for not being arsed.

Part of the problem is that the people you’re seeing here on social media cherry pick chunks of history to make a kind of collage that expresses their pre-existing political views

And they returned to power and captured Congress and the WH twice in 8 eight years for fully unified control of the government. Maybe that should concern the opposition.
