This is not a facetious question. I know I can technically ask AI but i don’t think this is a simple answer TBH, as I am confused about process, and I do not know enough about US politics.

All my life when observing US politics (which I don’t really do for fun) there has generally been a very visible opposition leader, you know their name their stance etc. It’s the same for most major powers. But for the USA I simply do not know anymore. I get the jist there is only 2 parties but the democratic party seems like its just disappeared. Previously there was news of candidates etc but that’s just gone. *

What is happening? and who is the leader of the opposition now?

I am not looking for a bunch of FTrump answers, it would be great to have a discussion that’s rational and not about him.
