Nah, because the Dems can’t win elections, and Republicans will never hold any Trump ally accountable.

This is probably what the DOGE kids are being pitched. There is a reason the most wantonly criminal conduct is coming from those too stupid or naïve to understand we haven't transitioned to a one-party state.

We haven’t? What power do the Dems hold, and what power do they have a serious chance of getting back in ‘26 or ‘28?
The DNC would have to make some serious changes, because the 2024 election was a perfect opinion poll on whether they have enough voters onboard the platform they’ve adopted to win a national election or a swing-state election. Running against a joke of a man, they lost. And the entire Democratic Party still hasn’t admitted to themselves why that happened.
I do hope a good third party moves into the massive power vacuum left by the DNC when it chased itself out of the mainstream into irrelevancy.
