Both political parties have been harvesting what political interest the public has left to divide the country even more than it already is, all in service of their corporate masters. They've been selling out our nation for decades and they can do it because people still trust major news outlets: Fox, CNN, ABC, MSNBC, all of it is bullshit. All it is is the corporate masters who can afford to put people on those giant platforms filling said platforms with whatever talking heads they can find that pass for "charismatic." Worst yet, because most people get their information from these talking heads, they can effectively control the public discourse: whatever they talk about is what's going to be on the mind of the public. Doesn't matter if it's important or not, doesn't matter if our freedoms are slowly being stripped away or if our republic is slowly losing it's position as the greatest nation on earth, because all that information isn't readily available and people are generally too lazy to look for it themselves.
All that said, one of the many reasons I love this nation is that when Americans find out they're being screwed, they get pissed. And when the get pissed, oh boy...
