Why? That has nothing to do with the post I replied to or this topic.

Having two dominant parties might work if the US had rank choice voting. Under the current system the primaries favor name recognition, which means an entertaining nutcase who gets a lot of media coverage has an advantage.

I always had reservations about race based affirmative action; why should a minority student from a wealthy family who went to an expensive prep school get preferred treatment. Economic affirmative action--giving preference and financial aid to students from families with below average incomes and going to school in below average school districts--I would support.

What word games and semantics? What did they say that was unclear to you?

Final summary: I did a fourth Windows 11 load with a complete drive wipe, Windows downloaded from MS One Drive (I couldn't get the computer to load from a USB), and without syncing with my MS account. The rampant snipping tool problem remained. I finally got elevated to the highest level of MS support where the tech went into my Windows PowerShell and deleted the line of code that opened the snipping tool. This had the effect of uninstalling the program, which the Windows uninstall program wouldn't do. The problem went away. So after nine days and many hours of tech support and four loads of Windows 11 and reloading of all the programs lost in the drive wipe and data I had backed up, I finally got Windows 11 to work. However that is nine days I wish I could get back. I know most people don't run into this kind of trouble with Windows 11, but I did and it defied attempts at resolution by myself and many MS tech support people. I will load a Linux operating system on my old computer that I was using as a backup and learn how to use it. If I ever have an issue like that again I will abandon Windows and become a Linux users.

I don't know, what are the US interests in this election? How did the US meddle? Which party will be more favorable to the US?

800 military bases that will be closed if the host nation asks the US to remove them. That rarely happens because the host nations generally perceive them as as net positives. Show evidence that the US is stealing Syrian oil, or that the starvation is caused by anyone other than the Syrian government. Please explain how the US has specialized in color revolutions. Also please explain how the US meddled in the last election, or in Thailand in the 21st century.
