Every day I find myself pondering just how untrustworthy the two governing parties in US politics proved themselves to be for enough voters to believe Trumpism was the better choice. I see no point in walking the same path to that same place again.

Ya fam. I'm straight up beyond exhausted. Its to the point of apathy. If their goal is simply going to be to maintain the status quo, why should we keep showing up?

I have become extremely apathetic, faced with the decision to move on and survive with what we have now or go back to what led us here and go through it all again later.

Both women were way more qualified. Both have a moral compass. Misogyny, hatred against women, is so strong in this country that people voted against their own interest, instead selected a rapist and felon. It is a form of sexism that can keep women at a lower social status than men.

This wasn’t about a candidate.

You can’t put a pretty bow on a box of shit and expect people to appreciate the bow as they accept the shit.

I agree, both parties need to go, I don't understand why we need political parties, why can't we just vote for who we want depending on their policies? There should be no banner applied to them, you either agree to their platform or not.
