if you are at all concerned with outcomes, "what is the other guy going to do?" is an entirely reasonable question to ask, and often the answer is miserable you could say that the solution is to then move attention to the primaries, and this is happening to some extent, but attempts there have been repeatedly stymied by abrupt rule changes and blatant ratfucks (see: the entire history of Bernie Sanders) we, arguably, got an answer on the right when Trump was elected, and pretty much everybody agrees that's been a disaster, from the establishment that fears him and the countermovement against him, to the base disappointed by his term and snubbed by his eventual removal.
