“We”? We can’t really do much about it. It’s the RNC and DNC that control that.
It would take the mass mobilization and coordination of a majority of Americans across party lines (big caveat there) to make a third party candidate viable. That’s an issue, especially when a significant part of the nation does indeed want fascist rule.
Edit: I’m not even sure it would be useful to primary better candidates as it’s the DNC and RNC who controls who is on their primaries. Even when the DNC allowed someone like Bernie Sanders on the ticket, they did everything they could to squash his campaign.
This is the problem. The RNC and the DNC are both private businesses looking to profit in one way or another. Neither give one fuck about the citizens. They only run candidates that are willing to serve the PARTY.
