What if, for every day the government is shut down, all elected members of congress, the senate, and maybe even the executive get 2 months taken off their term.

That way, they either get it figured out somewhat fast or we have a special election and elect people who can. Tired of these incompetent people getting away with being bad at their jobs. No other industry allows that - even food service workers can get felonies for mishandling food. That affects like, a few people at most. They are affecting MILLIONS

Meanwhile, progressives/third party candidates are essentially a vapor three years of every four. Then they show up from out of nowhere, begging for votes while touting an unproven political track record and next to zero clout to back up anything they promise.

Yeah. I can see why it seems only people below voting age seem to like them. Everyone else sees through the bullshit.

Now, bring on the whatabouts!

Bad faith to include progressives here... You are exclusively describing third party spoilers like green and you very likely know that.

Progressives are represented throughout US politics VERY actively, pushing boulders up these hills covered in feces. Meanwhile green party only has a couple dinners with Putin and trump's cabinet members in the interim years before they activate for a general election.

Nobody is buying what you are shoveling, chief.
