Americans are not the caricatures of evil and malice you seem to think we are.

You are currently debating whether hospitals can let women die instead of performing abortions

It's painful to admit, but American politicians do not actually represent Americans. Over 80% of us believe abortion should be legal under some if not all circumstances. We are being held hostage by an ignorant minority.

If your politicians don't represent the people, what the heck are they doing?

Or, why do your people still vote for them?

Because the party that most people don't vote for have become exceedingly adept at gaming the system.

Then do something about it.

But your other party won't change it either, because they use the same loopholes.
