So how does that work? Many RINOs aligned themselves with the tea party in 2008, just to stab us in the back later.

Well yes, people can always lie, even if they run as a Patriot Party or or as a MAGA Republican. I believe there is one right now - Nancy Mace, SC - who stabbed Trump in the back immediately after being elected.

On the other hand we got a few new ones in like Boebert, Greene & others as R's who ran aligned with MAGA.

I'm just saying it is difficult to run as a 3rd party candidate, they generally never win & it takes time to reinvent the wheel, while there is a party apparatus already in place.

What is the party apparatus exactly? Is it the money raising? The name? We already know the money won’t go to MAGA type candidates.

The RNC raised nearly half a million for election fraud lawsuits but less than $100,000 went to the actual lawsuits. I read Trump had to use a lot of his own funds, same with many independent lawyers fighting on his behalf.

And the name? People are very disgusted with anything GOP/RNC at the moment.

I don’t know. I know in the past I have always discouraged 3rd party voting (except in primaries), but I think possibly there are more MAGA folks than republicans. Trump drew from every race and party affiliation.
