What if President Trump formed a third party? What would happen? The Republican vote would be split and the Democrats would win the White House for the next 20 years. At least.

This is how the deep state stays in power. The Democrats AND the republicans ARE the deep state. They're playing you to keep out alternatives.

What do you say to this? Tom Emmer cast doubt on the 2020 election and supported lawsuit to throw election to Trump

"Though he would vote to certify the results on January 6, 2021,...":

That's called straddling an issue and is trademark of Swamp Congresscritter. It's like saying "I voted against it before I voted for it." In the end, when it counted, he certified the fraud. He will do nothing now to further expose the 2020 Big Steal, the infiltration and entrapment of the J. sixers, or the Biden crime family. No Speaker is better than Emmer as Speaker. He does not have Trump's endorsement. 'Eff him!

Oh, I get it. The Republican establishment refuses to represent its base and doesn't want to this to be what it was founded to be -- a representative republic.

I got that when the Republican establishment teamed with Deep State to try and frame Trump for Russian collusion, when it rigged the 2020 election and was complicit in setting up the J6 protesters.

What you're not getting is that all isn't sustainable and won't be accepted.

He’s going to win because the Rats support him. Worst possible option and of course that is who the Repukes go for. They had to find someone that Dems support but Trump doesn’t.

We'd have politicians in it standing on principle and representing its base and would eventually put the Republican party out of business.

Gaetz just wanted some TV time and attention. He got that. He’s fine with the outcome, undoubtedly.

If you want a Trump/MAGA/America First party then vote for such candidates in the Republican primaries.

If such a candidate can’t win a Republican primary there is little chance they could win a general election as a thrid party candidate.

Re: 66 - Will be interesting to see how Gaetz votes.

He can’t vote Present.

He HAS to vote No. Otherwise he looks like a... Gaetz.

Trump has had near 8 years to built a political coalition of support. If he can’t win now that is his fault and no one else’s.

LOL. Some people reading that post, including party activists will get a cardiac.

If we have a third party for conservatives, then the democrats are going to win for the next 100 years, and it will be unlimited spending, and our children will be stolen and brainwashed, and political opponents will be prosecuted in kangaroo courts and we will lose our freedoms and we will have marxism e.t.c.

From the article:

“Though he would vote to certify the results on January 6, 2021,“

So he covered his ass by expressing some doubts and went on to certify. He is a rino cuck. Why do think Mitch and the boys are pushing Emmer?

FU and your uni-party check comment.

I wanted Jordan too - but it isn’t gonna happen.

We’re stuck with something less than all of us wanted.

Let’s get moving forward with at least showing the American voters that we’re not a bunch of feuding hillbillies, ideologues and spoiled teenagers.
