“It has the advantage of stability but the disadvantage of a very unpopular POTUS staying until the end of his term”
In defense of the system, the term limits in the Roman Republic were much shorter. Maybe our’s are just the wrong length.
My problem with the Israeli system is that parties that get ~5% of the vote can end up being the “swing party” in building a coalition and get a disproportionate amount of say in government. Why should a party with 5% support get more say than the party that came in second place? I acknowledge that this helps the frum parties, but it’s extremely anti-democratic.
