They're not incompetent. They serve the owning class just like republicans do. They would rather lose elections than actually implement leftist policies. It's all intentional.

The US has been an Oligarchy for quite a while now.

I mean, it's pretty obvious ...

The specification yes. But can they silence voices they don't like, and amplify those they do? No? Then no problem.

Y'all, who do you think owned the news media before this latest batch of billionaires owned it? Who do you think it owner it before them?

Hint: the rich have owned the news media in Western countries since before the fucking Opium Wars. It's been this way since China was a peasant country and Russia was a Tsarist feudal society.
