I would check out to see if you have any fuses blown. Then I would suspect a bad key switch.

i checked my fuses and nothing and then i tried wiggling the key around to see if that would work but nothing

How did you check your starter? And if you think the starter is ok then maybe you have a bad starter relay. The relay is located in the No.1 junction box on the drivers side. Maybe pull it out and make sure the connection does not have any corrosion on it. You can test it by removing it and applying battery voltage to terminals 1&2 then check for continuity at terminals 3&5. If out of spec. then replace it.

i jumped the terminals on the solenoid and it starts right up and i swaped out the relay and it still didnt work
