There’s more than two.
Not in practice; in practice the US has a two-party system. In Denmark, governments are formed through coalitions of smaller parties agreeing to support someone in their bid to become prime minister. Danes don’t vote for the prime minister, or any minister, directly. Every single political decision is a compromise.
Where are the other ones during debates then?
Running for local offices. Politics isn’t just the Presidential election.
Effectively it is. The 2 party system is baked into every facet of American politics
