See, they (the DemoRepubliCons) did not, the voters did.
You were so close on this, yet missed your own point, and mine as well, which, incidentally, was in agreement with your OP point.
THAT'S why nothing will change (for the better), yous have all been conned into cult of personality politicing with an aristocratic elite lording over us grimacing peons who are too busy squabbling with each other about which crony con artist is better than the other crony con artist.
That's another benefit, incidentally, of voting for other than 'the two,' I get to sit back and watch everyone else pull each other's hair out while the ones they elected become millionaires and we hope our McD jobs will make us CEOs one day that'll make that big ol' $15 per, and perhaps even more! Maybe even be able to afford one of those Elon Muck toys to impress our friends on FB with our selfies in the parking lot.
