We may have got here eventually anyway, but things are a lot worse for Americans right now because of Trump's Republicans. Let's not lose sight of that when complaining about the shit they have in common.

There's also nobody who might emerge out of the right who would bring something that will make life for everyone better. Only the Democrats have a chance of doing that and engineering a better system that might eventuallyundermine their own political hegemony. Would they without pressure? Of course not. But the right will never even be pressured to do anything like that intentionally by it's base, almost by definition basically.

"Which side are you on?"

The "two party" system is on the same side.

Let me guess, your preferred form of government is "petty dictator killing people for not following the same exact lifestyle as he wants, but virtue signals to communism".
