Power and greed don't have a political party. They only have agendas.. Which agenda are you unknowingly supporting is the only question at this point..
I for one would have to agree. Our current administration, both Dems and GOPs, have forgotten, "of the people, by the people, for the people."
I can't remember the last time we had a government that was run For The People. I'm going back to before Reagan and struggling. Both parties have definitely sought power and control for decades, and they did Build That power. We just pay for That.
Our previous administration sucks, and it's just gotten worse. Those that take sides merely encourage them.
No, the founders would not be happy to see the two parties sabotaging the country only to make their opponents look bad.
That's only because during the first years of the Republic the people didn't have cable TV so they could watch the intercine warfare between the Democratic-Republicans and the Federalist.
From the Democratic-Republican newspaper:
A SK—who lies here beneath this monument?
L o!—’tis a self created MONSTER, who
E mbraced all vice. His arrogance was like
X erxes, who flogg’d the disobedient sea,
A dultery his smallest crime; when he
N obility affected. This privilege
D ecreed by Monarchs, was to that annext.
E nticing and entic’d to ev’ry fraud,
R enounced virtue, liberty and God.
H aunted by whores—he haunted them in turn
A ristocratic was this noble Goat
M onster of monsters, in pollution skill’d
I mmers’d in mischief, brothels, funds & banks
L ewd slave to lust,—afforded consolation;
T o mourning whores, and tory-lamentation.
O utdid all fools, tainted with royal name;
N one but fools, their wickedness proclaim.

They did not think much better of Adams. No punches were pulled back then.
