POLITICS: The Decline of America
Ft. Dr. David D. Schein
The decline of our country is evident every day, but the blame doesn't lie with the people, it's with those in power who made false promises and failed to support everyday American voters. Our political class is not working to uphold our American values. Figures like Nancy Pelosi, Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, and Ted Cruz have played roles in this decline. What grade would we give their actions,both good and bad? And do their personal lives impact their political performance? The answer is yes. Since 1917, the American empire has failed us. Although no other country comes close to the power and influence of America, our people are not experiencing the best of what America has to offer. Joining me to discuss this is Dr. Dave D. Schien, a professor, lawyer, and author, who will share why and how we can reverse the decline of America!
Dr. David D. Schein is a multifaceted political commentator, author, professor, attorney, and media host who integrates public policy, leadership, law, and national affairs in his work. Through programs like Dr. Dave Saves America and Business Law 101, he offers informed perspectives on the decisions and failures shaping the country today.

He is a Full Professor at the University of St. Thomas-Houston and hosts media series that focus on leadership, governance, and legal concepts vital to business owners and decision-makers.
Schein is the author of The Decline of America: 100 Years of Leadership Failures, a detailed analysis of presidential leadership and national direction over the past century. His work aims to provide context, argument, and a sharper conversation for those seeking more than superficial commentary. Whether discussing public affairs, institutional decline, or legal frameworks, Schein’s voice is characterized by seriousness, range, and a commitment to engaging the hard questions facing America today.
