The best thing for all of us would be an overhaul of the voting system to some sort of ranked choice system that seems multiple parties thrive in other countries. Trump and Jeb Bush shouldn't be in the same party, they are very different flavors of right wing. Bernie and Beto shouldn't be in the same party. You should be able to vote for someone on the right who isn't trump and who more matches your values. Biden fans should be able to vote for him based on their ideals and not have to worry about "settling" for Bernie because of our two party system. I should be able to vote for Bernie without thinking "shit i'm gonna have to hold my nose and vote Biden aren't I?"

Sadly it'll probably take something close to revolution to fix this, and we don't have that in us.
