    Yeah, and they said horseless carriages would never replace horses. It is necessary for a true democracy (the two party system has failed miserably!). Whether it's now or in the future - only time wil

What a third party did in 1992 was to have Clinton elected with 40% of the vote. A third party this time could well lead to a Republican victory, because the radical Trump faction is around 35% of the electorate, and there will not be that many Republican office holders defecting to a third party.

Hardly, I see a third party taking the 20% of soft Republicans and giving the democrats everything, particularly in 2026. People have had enough of the MAGA fraud.

And it's just as easy to see a third party taking the 20% of hard-left democrats and giving the Republicans. everything. 

 

If charismatic Marxist like Zohran Mamdani (unfortunately, he is ineligible) ran against Gavin Newsom and Vance, who does it pull votes from?

Everyone will be voting against the grifter in chief., just like 2018.

Third parties in US politics almost always act as spoilers.  A conservative 3rd party will help the Democrats, a liberal 3rd party will help the Republicans.  Right now the only one talking about a 3rd party is Musk, who will probably be more conservative than liberal.

 

Musk's party will probably appeal to "tech bros" who are not classic conservatives on all issues.  Right now the only liberal 3rd party is the Greens, who don't have much of a voter base in the US.

Why does the United States desperately need more mainstream national political parties?

 

All the sudden we need a new system because the left did not get their way. 

 

I think we have a great political system. 

Fabulous. Money and special interests do not have an outsized influence at all. Thumbs up!👍

I would consider any party that vigorously opposes the murderous Socialist agenda. But, the problem is tactical ideological rigidity. 

Apparently, Musk's party will offer free courses in pearl clutching. You should sign up real quick, this is gonna be so popular with the MAGA crowd!

The Swamp Creatures in DC will tell you that the US can only be a two-party system.  Well, two party duopoly: one snake, two heads.

They'll insist a third party will never get off the ground.  But - look at Reform UK.  Suddenly the Tories and Labor have competition.

So I can see a totally frustrated electorate moving to vote in a new "Reform US" kind of party.  I will. I'm sick of both US parties.  The US needs a real political change.

The party that represents Dem  Democracy ( mob rule) has left the building, They/ them represent decolonization/ the oppressed and the lefts  wealthy ( as long as  the wealth temporarily helps grow their Socialist/ Cultural Marxist/ anti Capitalist cause.


Elon is pissed cause The administration put restrictions on his Projects and DOGE cuts weren’t 100% accepted by Congress!

 

His polling was a world poll , not entirely American!

So far he’s got Trump hating supporters, Mark  Cuban, Anthony Scareamourtchi , Massie & Pence.

The hard core MAGA could be around 35% of electorate. Your 20% could amount to 10% of the electorate, but the 3rd party can also be expected to draw from the Dems as well. People are also fed up with the Dems. The point is that the winner does not need over 50% in a 3-party race.
