Shock poll: Trump 'Patriot Party' would win almost quarter of voters, drop GOP to third place
Just the News ^ | January 25,2021 | By Daniel Wattenberg

A Trump third party could provoke a pivotal realignment in American politics. With the support of 46% of registered voters in the new poll, Democrats would reap the benefits of a fractured opposition and entrench themselves as the nation's dominant party — even without majority support.

Among "very conservative" voters — who make up a disproportionately large bloc within the Republican primary electorate — a Trump Patriot Party crushes the GOP 55%-24%.

Should Trump remain in the GOP, his wide lead among these highly motivated voters affords him great leverage to influence the direction of the party by wielding the threat of conservative primary challenges against establishment Republicans ill at ease with the former president's combative brew of conservatism infused with populism and nationalism.

SHOCK POLL is BS 75-80 million voters is far more than 1/3 of Republican Party more like 85% of Republican Party and 25% of Dem party with all of the minorities added in!! After 2 years of Biden believe me people will be flocking to the patriot party!! I believe our NEW freshmen in the congress will also be switching parties!!!

I don’t think that’s the same DNC. If Trump is going to do something like this, and chop the GOP turds off at the knee, I think he’d wait until this impeachment crap is over.

“If all the Republicans, has one person on here said (or 92%) leave to another party, how is the new party going to be any different? By attracting more democrats like I’ve seen in this goofy thread?”

Your question is a non sequitur. A new party would not be the same as the Republican party.

The Republican party is dominated by moderates and globalists. It is hostile to conservatives. A new party would be home to conservatives and disaffected Republicans and Democrats.

Whole lot of temper tantrums of ‘we gotta destroy the right to save it’ around here. Kinda creepy. They have to go back 170 years or so to find the last time a 3rd party went anywhere at all.

It doesn’t even make sense. If you’re going to make a ‘new party’ and just have all the same people in it, nothing changes anyway. Can guarantee that virtually NO dems or even independents would join. At best you’d have 2 right parties for awhile split, or one of them absorbs the other and it was for nothing.

This is in no way a shock. I would wager that the GOP (aka, the new Whig Party) would end up garnering ca 15% of the vote, if that.

This needs to happen.

We don’t actually have to start a new Party, the mere suggestion is getting results.

At this point, with the rigged national elections, the GOP is rendered pointless and is all but dead. Time to move to a new party that will truly live up to Conservative values (not just profess to be) and focus on local elections. Remember that the steal could only work because the state level bureaucrats are controlled by the Dems. It’s time to work to switch that.

Yeah, I can see LP getting 1-3%, a Patriot Party getting up for 25%, and the GOP getting 15-20%.

Dems would win every election in the country as if unopposed. It’s confusing why so many can’t see that blatant fact.

You are dead wrong falling for the same BS as voting the lesser of two evils WHEN every damn time finding they are the SAME two evils!! A 3rd party has NEVER had the support that Trump has NEVER!!! I have been backing the GOP for 40+ years only to be betrayed by them each and EVERY TIME!! I am DONE being a battered wife by the GOP!! Trump runs under a 3rd party who you going to follow, the GOP/ NOT!!!!

Patriot party only works if Republican party gets closed down, meaning, does Literally not exist. 2-party system only works...3 party plus Dominion voting guarantees Dem commies win every time. Dems play chess, we play checkers.

“but emo and stupid.”

emo and stupid isn’t illegal. I figure that before Friday Scott Presler will be in the same boat; he’s too effective.

But in the House and Senate the two minority parties *could* join together and vote for the speaker and leader to overcome the Democrats.

"Shock poll: Trump 'Patriot Party' would win almost quarter of voters"

We need to pull the band-aid off. The weak do nothing GOP needs to go. I’d rather have a strong minority than a weak minority.

What has happened with Trump as president and now that he is gone, is that all the Never-Trumpers have exposed themselves, which means they are very easy to identify.

The grassroots are the ones who have been doing all the work ALL THESE YEARS, only to have them take credit for IT ALL, leaving us to whimper that things aren't right.

Since they have identified themselves and since we know who they are - they need to be kicked out.

The AZ grassroots "censured" about 2 or 3, we need to keep doing it across the land, and more.

If you remember the treatment Sarah Palin got when she was added to no-name's ticket? Did you know that all the grassroot leaders sitting there at the convention, where she was nominated, none of them were happy about no-name being chosen for us. But then Sarah was introduced the place went wild. How did the Country-Clubbers on stage and in the media treat her? Like she had come into the party without an invitation. But, she is one of us, one of the many grunts who do all the work in the party.

THIS IS OUR PARTY. WE WORKED AWFULLY HARD TO SEE THAT GREAT PEOPLE ARE ELECTED TO OFFICE ONLY TO HAVE THESE PEOPLE RUIN IT AS THEY STEP IN AND TAKE CREDIT FOR OUR HARD WORK AND CHOOSE THE LEADERSHIP AMONGST THEMSELVES.

Why do we like Trump so much? Because he is not a Country-Clubber, although he owns a few. He is at heart and in action a grassroots, "we need to protect the Constitution," kind of guy.

The miscreants have identified themselves. Now we work to replace them.

You see, we have Trump as our bellwether. He is a true leader. We need a bunch more just like him.
