Some fixes are easy, in particular
• all appointments have to be approved by a 2/3 or 3/4 majority in the Senate. That would have torpedoed nearly every person DJT has ever put forward, and extreme Supreme Court & other judges;
• forcing bills to the floor of either chamber when 10% vote for it, with full debate...
