Voting for Donald Trump’s impeachment and keeping the people in leadership positions who supported this recent impeachment push is going to drive the GOP base mad. It already has. I will not be shocked if Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) faces a serious primary challenge in 2022. While there were reports that at least half of the House GOP caucus wanted her gone, she remained, handily winning a secret ballot vote. It’s a classic case of all talk, no action. Saying one thing but doing another. I know, that’s a hallmark characteristic of American politics, but people have had it. It’s given in to the populist swell within the GOP. And with Trump gone, there is a fear that a new party could emerge. Now, Trump’s political team has disavowed the formation of this “patriot party.” But that’s not the same thing as Trump himself saying he has done so. GOP leadership should be watching. Their base is getting restless with these betrayals, one of the biggest being the failed repeal of Obamacare. For ten years, that was a promise — and nothing happened. No wonder why a new poll shows that a whopping 64 percent of Republicans would jump ship for a Trump-led political party. Oh, and the former president would get a sizeable chunk of Democrats too (via The Hill):
A majority of Republican voters said if former President Trump were to start a new political party they would likely join, a new Hill-HarrisX poll finds.
Sixty-four percent of registered Republican voters in the Jan. 28-29 survey said they'd join a new political party led by the former president, including 32 percent who said they would very likely join.
By contrast, 36 percent of Republican respondents said they are either very or somewhat unlikely to join.

Don't forget the gas lighters...
if their are enough of “us” -independent, motivated , doing our own research, creating our own communications and media, organizing for clean elections in our local precincts, the only people for whom party affiliation is important is “them” -and thats because WITHOUT a central organization “them” can focus on ...”them” can do nothing....about what is coming. NCSWIC
think about that every day every night 24/7/365
A third party can't win an election. Make the WhiGOP the 3rd party. MAGA baby!
FOAD.
You are a typical GOP fluffer with Rovian jiz on your face....
But they're not going elswhere i.e. Liz Chicanery.
LOL!! GOP Patriots?? Come on man.
Sorry that line of establishment BS isn’t going to fly. You want a suggestion: remove the entire GOP leadership in Washington they are the problem not the solution. Stop the lobbyist gravy train. Stop the sellout of the country to our enemies the Chinese. Your Dear leader McWeasel is compromised like most of the GOPE. Have your grafter GOPE release all their income sources and family members, bet they are owned like McWeasell. Stop being butt boys for Goldman Sachs and their low life ilk. And don’t tell me to work within your exclusive club, I mean party. That is also another establishment line to keep the conservatives beat down and trying.
What you don’t get is at some point when your good friends across the aisle are through chewing on the conservatives they are going to come after the GOPE club. All your Vichy behavior will be for naught. The GOPE is simple to understand they are sacrificing their voters and the country to the tiger in the vain hope they will be the last ones eaten by the Marxist beast.
You need to get with your Party is god boys and establishment and come up with some new shiny objects to dangle because right now without any Democrat cheating at best you get a status quo election in 2022 or at worse a beat down.
But they’d both go down to defeat.
And the difference between “going down to defeat” and being sold out by RINOs is?
It’s a question of whether you want to be governed by a GOP majority that includes some RINOs or you want to be governed exclusively by Democrats who call RINOs “the far right.”
McTurtle is married to a Chinese asset.
He is not even a RINO anymore.
How would that be any different from we functionally have now? The Republicans as a political party certainly no longer represent conservative ideology, nor do their elected representatives (with few notable exceptions) stand in defense of the Constitution. There’s barely a dime’s bit of difference between the two major parties, in my opinion.
