Main problem is election reform would permanently destroy one of our political parties in its current state, and they are fully aware of this. They will burn our country down with us inside before they let it go, so it is wise to proceed with caution.
I don't think the rest of the world wants to see not Russia's nuclear arsenal dispersed, but ours.
Fighting a foreign power, however, rings straight to a huge strength of my country at least, the good ole US--our love of righteousness, competition and victory. This leaves a gap in their strategy, where they intended to inflame tribalism, but that can be turned definitively against them at the drop of a hat.
