All this really tells me, as mentioned above is that the two party system is RUINING our country. Everything just winds up boiling down to us vs them, no shades of gray, no alternate viewpoints or ideas, just two rigid ideologies butting heads time and time again, doing everything they can possibly do to discredit the other side. And what does this create? A horrible divide where a country has become split so deeply that people begin viewing half of their own countrymen as an enemy. Its sad and pathetic.
Honestly at this point in my life I'm so burnt out on politics I've forced myself to just become oblivious to it. Does anybody really care whats best for our nation anymore? Or has it just become status quo to blindly support your "side" no matter what the issue or consequence? I yearn for a country that can rationally debate and decide on an issue without nearly stating a second civil war every time something doesn't go a certain way. I feel like I live in a nation full of 5 year olds sometimes.
