    You are correct although I don’t even think the two party system is related to the constitution. I think it’s more about precedent than anything else. The country is too conservative to change the way things are done even when it’s not legally bound. I’d love to leave this shithole. The day trump won in 2016, I lost faith irreparably that we’d ever be decent again. As you can imagine, 2024 nuked the tiny sliver of hope I had again. I expect the worst moving forward. I grew up in a world that this generation was supposed to be able to fix. But the oligarchs have ensured only the oldest most corrupt rich asswipes alive can access power so that dream is dead.
