Roberts said she worries that if Republicans don't satisfy the American constituency in the next two years, voters may not turn back to the Democrats.
"They will start to think politicians simply aren't worth the trouble," Roberts said.
Roberts, who also works for National Public Radio, cited an ABC exit poll from the recent election indicating that many voters would elect "all new leaders even if they were ineffective."
Roberts said that if citizens completely lose trust in the government, it could be detrimental to society as a whole.
"All we have defining us as a nation is our commitment to the Constitution and the institutions it created," Roberts said. "Without them, we have no common history."
