I think parties are fine but a multi party system usually works much better since parties will have to make coalitions and will usually shit on each other a bit less.

GW specifically didn’t want the US to devolve into a 2-party system.
IMO single party or multi party system can both result in a functional representative democracy.

Are the examples of single party functional representative democracies? I have no clue…

The USA didn’t have a 2 party system for the first decades of it’s existence.
