The approval from Republicans is crazy. Democrats will need extremely high support for their candidate in those few key states to beat Trump

If you want this to change, you need a proportional system, multi-winner electorates or at least ranked voting. Otherwise it's spoiler effect all the way down. --- Keep it green. ...

We either need to outlaw political parties, or change our voting system to make more than two parties be viable.

How very antifascist at what point do you say that people are too dumb for democracy though? Republican voters are electing guys who think climate change is bullshit. They are literally putting the entire human race at risk because they dislike brown people. Then again, Trump is doing his best to get rid of democracy anyway.

Two party system is garbage. I agree with you, in theory and ideally. Realistically though, do you really see the average American going through the effort of turning off their reality tv or whatever long enough to do the thinking and researching required for this? I think the reason we're in this mess in the first place is because the answer is no...they won't. People like keeping things easy so that they can get back to their lives. People like only having to think "Well they're a Democrat and I like Democrat so I vote." or "My friend, Billy Bob. told me that this guy has no chance of winning and that I shouldn't vote for him" --- If this signature appears blue, you need to consider not doing whatever it is you're doing. ...
