The only way you believe that is how it works, is if you're already buying into the framing of the "Anti-Woke", "Anti-Empathy", Anti-human. You're imagining a world where it all begins and ends in Republican or Democrat.

I want you to think real hard. Most Democrats, can't stand each other. There's like half a dozen different factions, and the only thing that they all agree on, is we should probably not intentionally destroy our lives, homes, and futures, condemn our children to die and ultimately wipe humanity off the face of the Earth. We're stuck, working with a bunch of idiots who keep undermining every positive thing we try to do, and I will stand with you always to oppose them someday. But right now, we have a bigger problem. Because this isn't a fight between right and wrong. This is a fight between "Right, Wrong, Good, Bad, and Ugly" vs "The End of Everything".

You're right, Democrats aren't a solution. They're a stop-gap. They're a play for time and we have to come up with a better answer in the meantime, because they will fail. Their true policy is they have no real policy because they are such a big tent they have no coherent message. They're just opposed to ending everything.

So yeah, if you take the Republican framing of this being a clash of two principled, moral, coherent world views, it seems reasonable to say neither of them seem to fix anything. It's not though. It's the chaotic mess of everything that might be on one side, vs endless silence on the other.
