With a Blue Military Industrial Complex party and a Red Military Industrial Complex party, the US can only switch back and forth every few years.
If we point to Biden's obvious cognitive decline, his dishonesty, his corruption, and his warmongering, his supporters just point and say "But Trump!!!" When what we really need from the Democrats is that they give us someone who isn't in cognitive decline, isn't dishonest, isn't corrupt, and isn't a warmonger. In other words, someone who would be popular for his own sake, and not only in contrast to someone only slightly more horrible.
So you want Democrats to replace Biden, but you already determined that all American politicians are evil, so you'll again have hate and disdain for whoever they replace Biden with. So what exactly is the point of your post except for you to suck your own dick?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
