What's deplorable is the two party system that encourages loyalty over reason. Both parties are sick, but in very different ways, and the right is having a severe episode right now.
The solution isn't to try to convince everyone to vote for the lesser evil, but to show them how broken the system is and to demand an end to the two party system. That won't fix everything, but it should at least give people a better way to express their preferences.
This is why I'm seeking public office as an Independent. There is no way to fix it except to do it ourselves.
I may do the same. I've considered running to oppose my State Legislature reps, who usually run unopposed.
