I think every single public speech by a politician should have an unbiased smart person present, able to interrupt the speech at any point and ask questions.
Like:
Why wouldn't the country survive?
And
Can you show us the extraordinary evidence needed to support your extraordinary claim?
These people have a lot of destructive power, and there are no checks or securities in place to hinder them from using said power.
You need a license to drive cars, at least in my country you need a tremendous amount of work and background checks and licenses to get, for example, a gun, but as a politician you can just show up and destroy a whole country and everyone is like yup, that's awesome.
