Division by both sides on the directions of the Republican and Democratic parties has helped drive support for a national third party to an all-time high of 62%.
In the latest Gallup survey, just 33% are pleased with the two-party system.
What’s more, former President Donald Trump’s talk about his own “MAGA” party could be playing a role in a spike in GOP support for something new.
“Republicans' record desire for a third party comes at a time when they are deciding whether to remain loyal to Trump or to move on from him,” according to the survey analysis just released.
“Currently, 68% of Republicans prefer that Trump remain the party leader, while 31% want the party to have a new leader. Republican-leaning independents, however, are divided, with 47% wanting Trump to continue leading and 51% preferring a new voice,” Gallup said. “Republicans' preferences for a third party are similar among those who want Trump to continue to lead the party and among those who prefer a new leader.”

Any party that makes term limits part of their platform will draw a lot of new voters.
The GOP wants to rope Trump into staying in the GOP because they would instantly become the Whigs if he bolts the party.
The GOP will never be anything more than Assistant Democrats assisting them advancing their leftist agenda and blocking conservatives from keeping our country.
They have spent the last 30 years importing a permanent Democrat majority.
It’s a trap.
Jacksnipes like the Examiner (a never trumper fakir front) are trying to drive the narrative of a “third” party— INSTEAD of what is going to happen— the RE-CREATION of a real conservative Republican party, purged of the globalist RINO NEOCON and demorepubs of the establishment and the Statist cabal.
The concept of an American Republic, a Constitutional Republic with representatives in Congress who reflect their State’s interests and their constituencies (not GLOBAL, and not Beltway consolidated bandits).
Conservatives understandably don’t want a new conservative party because it would divide the current Republican party.
But why don’t patriots sign up with Trump’s party if he starts one and minority GOP elite can keep what’s left of RINO Party, but still only two major parties, new Trump Party and desperate Democrats?
What am I overlooking?
but GOP wants Trump in charge
Corrected:
but VOTERS wants Trump in charge
...... A great name for the new party should be the H Ross Perot Party LOL .... Named after the guy that gave rise to the term ... The Perot Effect ..... Which would be the logical result
My opinion, Splitting the Republican party into Trump and Non Trump parties will probably guarantee a Democratically controlled Congress, Presidency and Supreme Court for decades to come.
The GOP does NOT want Trump in charge, they just want to use his name to pander to us.
Screw them.
The new party would replace the GOP and the GOP would go the way of the Whigs as they deserve.
The Bush League Republicans will never let us take over the GOP, they’d rather burn it to the ground first.
Maybe you are overlooking the fact that Trump is staying with the GOP.
WTH? Wasnt it just a few days ago that there was reports of a RINO party forming?
All you have to do is stop voting for betrayal and there is no vote split.
““Republicans’ record desire for a third party comes at a time when they are deciding whether to remain loyal to Trump or to move on from him,” according to the survey analysis just released.”
I think that decision was made for us when the GOP went against 90% of its based in supporting Amnesty and then attacked Trump for wanting to end Illegal Immigration.
Head fake to keep us on the GOP plantation.
What is needed is a second democrat party..with lots of DINOs..otherwise known a conservatives..as candidates.
BTW, best way is to quit the republican party if you are registered as one, then register as an ‘I’ and go on from there.
Support the candidate and not the party.
I quit the republican party when Romnut was selected as the candidate for POTUS.
I cant stand that lying POS SOB, the weasel asshole.
Eff em..all of em.
Mitch McConnell is the top Republican politician right now. Let that sink in.
The Republican Party DID NOT support Trump while he was in office.
Hardly any objection to the fraud was raised.
I’m leaving the party and not looking back.
