So what do you suggest we do about it?
Work towards passing state level electoral reform in your state. Once more then two parties can be viable, competition will force the legacy political parties to actually attempt to represent people.
I doubt they'd be able to make that pivot. Representation in exchange for votes is a purity test neither will pass IMO.
Already ahead of you on that as an active member of my state's ranked choice voting initiative.
