    Another thing that annoys me is how people just treat the primary process with such respect with regard to the 2 parties. This year the GOP primary is the only (potentially) competitive one, so what’s stopping everyone from voting in the GOP primary so there can be a more acceptable opponent to Biden? I know it feels icky to register as a Republican but I’m just kinda shocked how no one ever takes this opportunity with such an exploitable system that consistently gets us disastrous results. Instead we complain about the 2 party system all the time, but then abide by it when the two parties ask us to.
