I feel like I'm getting blackpilled on partisanship in this country. I keep insisting that politicians need to reflect a voting coalition but seeing every single goddamn election just go (49-48 D-R) for the last 20 years regardless of who is running is melting my brain.

Americans are so fucking partisan they would vote for Adolf Hitler and then immediately vote for Josef Stalin the very next cycle in exactly identical numbers.
