I'm glad I'm not alone. But people are slowly starting to realize that the 2 party system is flawed. It can't be repaired because it's working exactly as intended. It needs to be scraped.
I don't think we should have any political parties.
Personally I think we should just let everyone run. Person with the most votes in that state win, person with the most electoral votes is president.
But it would take a lot of voting reform. Maily the minimum number of electoral votes to win, but again it's designed this way to prevent a 3rd or even 10th party.
Though it would make it a hell of a lot harder for our Oligarchs to know who to back. And that is a massive issue we just accept. Everyone talks about it so we don't ignore it we just accept it.
The biggest problem is that it takes an ungodly amount of money to run. Even for smaller local offices you need thousands and thousands to run a campaign. The only way to get that money is to be wealthy or make promises.

Iām in the same place you are. I hate Trump and think Biden has no business in the White House.
