    You know what both parties have in common? Corporate donations. Remove business from politics and both parties will be vastly different

      Just like many other “solutions”, this is just a wish, not a solution.

      The actual solution involves actually reaching that point.

      which party pushed citizens united through?

      and the Supreme Court justices nominated by which parties voted which way on that?

      Just like I said in another comment: your choices are quite-far-right, and extreme-right. Oh, and Bernie, who is center-right.

      Pretty much the entire rest of the world is thinking it.

      And yet, you’re right. They’d still be different.

        No we aren’t. Bernie is not someone the rest of the world would consider center right. You’re being hyperbolic.

    This is propaganda to secure Republicans another term.

    If you really think Dems would have pulled that ICE or tariff bullshit, you deserve to be ruled by Trump.

    Also, there are third parties, but with the US voting system, you can only safely vote for them if Dems are most likely to win. Then you vote for the third party to slowly pivot more to the left.

      Also the children in cages that trump got heat for in his first term were started by Obama.

      There already is one. Their message is so compelling and they are so competent that they get <0.1% of the vote.

    Aside from this not being true because “openly fash far right” and “corporate bought center right” are not the same even though both suck:

    They’re the same. An election system that allows for more than 2 parties inherently encourages more diversity between the parties.

    When do people start showing up to these representatives’ houses?

    Their addresses are out there.
