>we really have to start thinking about how to organize work at a fundamental level
Who is this "we"? As if society at large gets a say? Do people owning land and houses ask the homeless of how to organize home ownership?

Voters never get what they vote for.
That's not an example of people getting what they voted for though.
It's RNC trying to prevent people prevented get the alternative to what they decidedly didn't what. RNC just wanted the same old politics and career players (that people didn't want), and tried to prevent Trump for that reason (same as Dems did to Bernie).
Not that Trump wining changed anything. After he won, he negated on his promises, and just gave same old neoliberal/neocon RNC shit combined with some theatrics for the gullible.
So people prevented from electing who they wanted, and when they finally elected him anyways, they got the same shit they voted him as the alternative to.
Politicians' whole schtick is to promise the sun and the moon and then give their buddies the lucrative government contracts, do insider trading, and generally create hidden rings of influence.
Voting and democracy in general are a facade and have been probably ever since they first existed. Not seeing that seems... a strange form of idealism, to me.
