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.

There is no new party.
There will be no more fair elections.
USA died Jan 6, 2021.
Only the military can prove me wrong.
This would make the Rats so happy. Hell, they wouldn’t even have to steal elections anymore.
This would be a win/win. For Democrats.
But why not give it a shot? It’s not like conservatives should be voting for Republicans anyway.
The Grand Old Party must remove the Old Tired part
The GOPe did it to themselves!
Yup
They can just openly join the democrat uniparty
Joe wants unity by crushing those who wont accept his hijacking of the white house
The uniparty is for Joes type of unity
Unity for Joe!
Unity for Joe!
.....
Do it, President Trump.
So many, are completely fed up with the Grand OLD Party.
They already lost me.
I’m not supporting the Republican party anymore. Trump needs a party that adheres to conservative constitutional principles.
Seriously? I’ve been lied to my entire adult LIFE by the Republicans, with the exception of Presidents Reagan and Trump. It took me until I was 50 years old to stop believing, and that was already a DECADE ago!
You want my vote? You need to EARN it. So tired of these lying, butt-head Uni-party JERKS everywhere I turn.
Maybe not a win for rats. As Biden-Harris continue to screw the country, most sane people will be begging to put America first. Trump exposed both parties.
Where do I sign up? I’m still flying my Trump flag and my American flag is at half mast.
Just ask Fox how it turned out for them to turn their back on their base. I hate the split but do votes really matter any longer? I would love to have a few minutes of Mittens or Turtle’s time to sort of explain how this works.
The enemy is inside the castle and is pulling up the draw bridge behind it. Either the military (that segment containing patriots) counters this coup NOW or the enemy will strengthen and consolidate its grip on power.
Everyday that passes leaves us weaker.

A third party is fake news and everyone knows it. Fills in a slow day though.
Our resident GOP fluffers have their work cut out for them to coerce people into voting for more betrayal.
What a plan! Brilliant!
hopefully
