well that's kind of the point isn't it? every time the Republicans get in they do so much damage that it can't possibly be done in the inevitable swing back to the left that they create and then by the time they get back in because of all the reactionaries they just do more damage
kind of the end result of a two-party system if you think about it
The D's aren't going to fix anything. I know this because they didn't fix anything the last time. Its a big tent that encompasses everyone left of "don't hunt LBTQ for sport" and like, 2/3 of those people don't even believe in that strongly enough to not ally with the same Silicon Valley brownshirt dipshits that the fascists do. They didn't enshrine Roe. They couldn't even shore up enough support to prevent Trump from running again in spite of the utter insanity of his first term and the fucking shit he campaigned on this last time.
And if you disagree, just remember, they lost twice to Trump. The second time they had every single advantage; Project 2025, Biden guiding the pandemic recovery. They couldn't not deep throat natanyahu long enough not to lose Dearborn and Miami, even though the other side is literally going to throw them into Concentration camps, and they couldn't help themselves but to parade around literal war criminal Liz Cheney.
I'm not being a doomer. We have two parties in this country. Fascists and Fundraisers. We have to understand this. The next four years will be filled with genocide; migrants are being send to Gitmo already. The RFK is talking about rounding up the disabled. DEI is just another euphemism for the N word, so at best we are a few months out from someone saying that they should round up DEI or "woke" or whatever. And the Dems will go with it, up until they get night of Long Knives themselves (with a few exceptions, who will be arrested earlier.) I know this because they sure haven't done shit as of yet. Except for reach across the isle and confirm some utterly unqualified Q anon pilled cabinet choices, and of course, yelling about how this is all illegal, like Eddard Stark, with his dick flapping in the breeze.
The system is working as intended and must be destroyed.
I mean yeah, Dems have complacent leadership but they are definitely the much better of two bad options.
My point is even if you had ideal leadership, inevitably discontent of uncontrollable externalities would cause a tick-tock cycle between the two parties as reactionaries are just part of the human condition and the party willing to play dirty will always come out on top in a two party system.
I can agree with that. "As intended" and so on
