Have to disagree with you about hidden not being Democrats or Republicans.
Without party affiliation one loses a great deal of power. In most states primaries are not open to non-members of the party and you have no say in who is nominated to run for office.
I have repeatedly stated that all politics is local. I have been a member of my town’s Democratic Town Committee for years. I have been an elected member of town government. That could not have happened if I was unaffiliated.
I have been a delegate to the past twenty state conventions and 4 national party conventions. I have given up those seats and hope younger people get involved.

I always vote candidate not party line, splitting my ballot.
I will vote against a particular candidate for President this year, but don’t consider myself a supporter of the other.
Unlike 2016 and 2020 I shall not contribute to a Presidential campaign fund
