Well yeah, it’s not his fault for the entirety of the empire. But he and his party prop him up as the only solution, so why would I keep voting for him? Or anyone else who supports the status quo?
There will not be electoral reform - well, the best you can hope for is a state getting gerrymandered in your favor. There will never be anything like abolishing electoral colleges, making Election Day a holiday, more protections from intimidation, ranked voting, etc. If democrats can’t do it with decades in office and control of the government, then when? The only time everyone agrees is when it comes time to kill minorities abroad and at home.
There is democracy in several member states of the USA. It could trickle up. There are mechanisms to make that happen. I think is even an ongoing campaign to replace the electoral college. I forget the details now.
