It seems like you have a lot of frustration and concerns about the current state of politics and politicians in our country. It's understandable to feel disillusioned with the two-party system and the lack of real progress. The corruption and self-interests of politicians can be disheartening. Additionally, the age and mental health of some politicians raise valid questions. It's important to continue engaging in discussions, staying informed, and seeking positive change. Remember to approach these topics with respect and open-mindedness to foster constructive conversations.

For sure, and that is why for years I have been saying that it is coming soon, where every moderate on both sides is finally done with these radicals on both sides, and just leaves the parties to make their own, the Common Sense party or something.... and it would work too. If half of both sides left, then neither dem or repub can win anymore... ever. Oh and side note, having a party that is pretty much middle of one side to the middle of the other side, would also mean that the insane/rich people would not be making the decisions anymore, and we can finally actually you know... do something for once, not just say the other party is bad, and then do nothing.

The rise of radicalism on both sides of the political spectrum has led to a growing frustration among moderates. This sentiment has given birth to the idea of a "Common Sense Party," which would encompass individuals from the center-left to the center-right. Such a party could potentially break the current gridlock and enable meaningful action on various issues, rather than the current cycle of partisan bickering. If a significant number of moderates were to leave their respective parties and join the Common Sense Party, it could fundamentally change the political landscape and pave the way for more pragmatic and effective governance.
