      What if we banned the republican and democratic parties, along with all those involved, and redid our elections. Wouldn’t that be a better outcome for the nation? I bet we could get a real bipartisan movement going.

          Well the civil war pretty clearly established this and if we try we would absolutely have to fight and win a multi year war during which in addition to millions or tens of millions of deaths there would be ample pretext to not count our votes. We would seem folks herded into death camps which nukes would insure nobody would liberate.

          Our military would be firmly on the side of compliance with the law which they voted for 2 to 1 and we would lose.
