It would do more than that.

It’s hardly been heard of yet, and it’s already at 25.00%

I’ll bet it would even break some of the old Democrats free
who simply could not go Republican.

The Republican Party is yesterdays trash.

Put it out for pickup.

I think the way to go is targeting all of the seats in solid red areas ... chances are they won’t use Dominion crap there and the Dem will have little chance in a 3 way race.

I don’t care if the Republican in a solid red district is someone we view as “good” ... I’ve kind of seen that “good” in DC means that they’ll only stick a blade in your back 1/2 way without twisting the knife.

If we could win something like 20 seats, that would be massive ... anything more would be icing on the cake.

We’d have to caucus with the GOP of course, so we wouldn’t be completely free of their garbage, but if we could pick up 20 or so seats in 2022, 2024 would be very interesting for a new party.

Agreed.

I think you'd get to something like: Rats - Hi 30's, Patriots - Lo 30's, GOPe - Lo 20's, Other/unsure - 5-10%

But after finishing a distant 3rd, the GOPe would fall apart completely.

Yep, moderate Democrats no longer feel at home in the Democrat party, but they still have a lifelong dislike of the Republican party. That’s why I think most of the “Walkaway” dems you see are below a certain age threshold.

When most Republicans don’t even want to be Republicans anymore, we certainly aren’t going to be able to sell it to anybody else.
