The Democrat Party thanks you.

Two parties is simply based on the concept of the Majority. With 2, one will have it.

Fracturing the Democrat’s opposition will just make their job easier.

Yes, the Republican Party sucks. Government needs to be fixed from the inside, out.

And America needs a Free Press.

NO!

The short-term cost is worth it to grow a true opposition party from the grassroots up.

There is NO PLACE for any existing GOP representatives or higher ups in the new American Party with a few notable exceptions.

The Democrat Party thanks you.

I’ve been told this all of my life. But it’s time for change.
You’ll have 80 million people in this party with extras willing to join. Even the libertarian party can’t hold a candle to those numbers.

Agree. Beating the RINOs in the primaries is the best way to go. Either way will take some time, new party or primary RINOs. The new party way would help the LEFT gain supermajorities right away.

The conservative media needs a hand up. The best way to do that is to dump cable tv. Usually 10% go to battle. So 7 million of the 74 million should take the lead and dump cable tv.

The dumblecrat party stole this election. You do not make nice with them.

The Republican party was born of the old Whigs in 1854. By 1860 they captured the Presidency.

No reason to cling to people who refuse to represent you.

I agree with your other points but Trump tried mightily to reform the government from the inside. He was partially successful.

I fear we do not have any control over the deep seated bureaucrats who run this country...who always seem to find a judge to do their bidding.

But I DO think there are at least 50million pissed off people who will let the pubbies hang.

The classic examples of the German Weimar Republic's fracture into various political factions and the American schism leading to the Whig's demise are at the opposite ends of the debate. One ended in disaster, and the other after great deal of trouble was a success. However, the common factor was enough dissatisfaction with both institutions leading to action. The deciding factor in the formation of a third party will be the level of dissatisfaction. And factions in the GOP are now in the phase of determining that very thing.

I broke with the GOP twenty years ago and registered as unaffiliated. But in the case of others, the actions of Rat leadership to continue to shred the Constitution and the GOP response to it will be the determining factor in a successful third party movement. Only time will tell. As a former, solid "C" history major; I watch and wait.

Yeah, Pravda isn’t cutting it for me. OAN or News Max in limited doses.

I’ve read that our Founding Fathers never wanted a two-party system.
