I’ve been saying for a long time that we need a new Trump party!

A blanket party for some and a necktie party for the worst of them.

The Repukes don’t have the votes to stop Trump’s tariff on Mexico.

A new party?

We DID that back in 2016 when we elected Trump

We did an end run on the GOP and they’re just sick about it.

There is only one party in DC. And the job of its members is to remain at the trough for as long as possible.

moronic. try this one, and we’re guaranteed president kamala harris (or whatever) and democrat supermajorities in both houses of congress. then not only will your health care get hijacked, but they’ll confiscate your 401K plan and the government will manage that for you, as well.

third party fetishists are infantile; they are attractive only because they are, by definition, free from the guilt of any perceived past sin. they’re imaginary, so they’re perfect.

this is a position advocated by the delusional and the idiotic.

Trump could switch to any other party and still win in a landslide.

He could probably run in all major parties at the same time and still win.

I am looking for a Reagan/Mondale type landslide.

We tried with the tea party and it was instantly infiltrated by shills like Cruz, Ryan, Rubio and Haley.

It’s too late.

We are enslaved in every way except our votes and our guns.
The voting will become useless, then the gun owners will be eliminated.

Everyone will cower in their own little corner of paradise counting on not be the next victim.

All because we should have shot the bastards already.

What person who as speaker of the house, after 8 years in the wilderness under Obama, what person would “retire” in the middle of his President's first term? The “R”s had the Presidency, the House, The Senate.

Not only did Paul Ryan lie continually to this country, when he “retired” he encouraged 40 of his Republican colleagues to join him. Unprecedented. 40 grown men bailing on their country when they were needed most. It was these retirements which cost Donald Trump his Republican majority. Everyone who retired is to blame for the border crisis. Every single one.

Hell no!
This is my house. I’m not moving out just because some vermin has moved in and called it their own. I say kick the bastards out and take back our party.

Splitting the party won’t work.

We have to primary every GOP legislator that’s not supporting Trump out of office.

We also need a sea change in party leadership at the state and local levels so that we quit getting RINO’s presented to the voters.

Here's the basic problem with starting a third party:

The political process has already developed into a two-party system because most elections are naturally oriented to it.

Here's a perfect example: In a presidential election, all states operate under a "plurality winner" system where the winning candidate for the state (or for the individual House districts, in the case of Maine and Nebraska) is the one who gets the most votes -- even if the winning candidate doesn't get a majority of the votes. In this scenario, third-party candidates usually do nothing except split the vote for one side or the other. That's how you end up with some nitwit winning an election with less than 40% of the vote.

Unless you get to the point where a third party has enough support to defeat BOTH major parties in these elections (and this is not impossible, as Jesse Ventura showed in Minnesota), then building a third party is a waste of time.

If you want to build a third-party movement, the first thing to do is change election laws on a state-by-state basis so that minority parties have an easier time winning elections at the municipal, county, and state legislative district levels. Then build this up to the point at a regional level where a presidential candidate can actually win individual states and win electoral votes in a presidential election. As Ross Perot showed us, winning 19% of the popular vote and ZERO electoral votes accomplished absolutely nothing.

The wonderful thing about the 2016 Presidential Primary was how we utterly kicked in the teeth of the GOPe establishment! Holding Yeb! to only 4 delegates was a thing of beauty ranking right up there with Reagan’s 49 state juggernaut.
Now if we could only transfer this utter rejection of the GOPe to Congressional Primaries we might actually start Making America Great Again!
I was hoping we would start seeing it in 2018 Primaries. Sadly, we didn’t. Same old RINOs keep winning...
