I do know what to do.
I think there are two false thing posited in the article. One, implied, that Trump is a Republican. We all know he isn't typical of the party.

If I get your gist, I disagree. My impression of the article was that's it pointing out the insane futility of entrenched two party politics - of course the author may actually have intended something similar to what you say above.
What is it that isn't working?
