The whole point is that only allowing for two parties seems to be the pathway to idiocracy and this whole system fails the people hard. Trump vs. Hillary, then Trump vs. Biden, then Trump vs. Biden part 2. I get better choices at every unimportant borough election. No one's uncle got eaten by cannibals there, idiocy like that fails hard at the ballot box, voters just would go with an ideologically close alternative and hence folks who say stupid stuff like that get weeded out by their parties well in advance.
But in the US, sane people are actually forced to defend insanity just to not aid the other side. It's a sad state of affairs and I keep wondering where the disgust about it is.
Desantis had a real shot at the nomination, but the media expended tremendous effort lying about him ("Don't say gay") and the left literally tore him down at every opportunity. That and the Dems deliberately propped up Trump as they believed he'd be an easy defeat this November. You can correctly blame the GOP for nominating Trump, but the Dems and the media share a large amount of the blame as well.
