that Biden shamelessly did

What? Parachute Harris in? IIRC, that was a broadly popular move.

It does not alter my original and only genuine point though; if you and your ilk all vote, you’ll stop this. That is evidenced by the Republicans doing the same.

now Trump is doing the same

No, he’s doing worse, because there’s no way this would be going on Harris been elected. We all told you this would happen around the time we told you that you’d elect him again.

all the pissing and moaning

Is being done collectively by Americans, not just blue MAGA cucks as you put it. They’re all full of excuses, they just vary in angle. Poor reps. Can’t vote because job. Not me I didn’t vote for it. This is not what I voted for. We can’t do anything it’s rigged. Take a card.

your entire voter base

Not mine. Check my country. I’ll throw you a bone; I agree, I think the Democrats are dogshit, offer dogshit candidates, are beholden to outside influences and there’s rationale behind the complaints of the left. Absolutely. Fucken oath they should have backed Sanders, Warren,AOC and I’m glad Mamdani owned them because it is finally proof to the shitlibs that progressive candidates are what is needed.

Just vote. Participate, even if it’s a non desirable candidate who at least won’t continue a petrochemical war. Until you can get the people in who will then make voting third party worthwhile by offering ranked choice as you call it, it’s counterproductive. I know, but they won’t, okay? The long route is the only way.
