Here’s what trump is doing

Trump is going to play king maker for a while. The end game is a New party.
Rather than just roll it out now, they’re going to fund raise and then start promoting national and high level state candidates in select areas to compete with Republican candidates. If he can become a king maker as they expect then within 3 years, expect a new party.
If he cannot get the traction that they expect within 1 year then the Republican Party is likely to become very moderate to liberal. The trump movement will dwindle.
We’re at the crossroads politically. This is the moment in time where new parties either get formed or squashed. Trump has a lot of enemies on all sides right now but political attitudes change quickly with wins. He will need some early wins to get the traction and then keep the momentum going.
Trump will need the media to some extent but he also needs to villify them. The msm media (including fox) is going to have fits with it but it’ll be fun to watch.

Oh great! Democrat super majorities and enormous Electoral College mandates. Awesome end game.

If the end result of trump consolidating power is unmitigated democrat rule, why are they so afraid of him?

I don’t understand what you are asking, but I’m not speaking for Democrats regardless. A third party that splits the GOP vote will accomplish nothing outside of electing Trumpish candidates in ruby red districts and states, and the Democrats winning everywhere else.

It’s pretty simple.
You assert trump splitting up the GOP will allow the democrats to come into complete power.
One must assume if tigerdroppings posters know this, democrat leadership knows this.
If trump starting his own party is good for democrats, why have they gone to such great lengths to destroy him after he left office?

They’re just going to slowly take over the Republican Party imo

Dominion will not need to have 'water main breakage' at 4:01 am. It will change votes, real time by a ratio of 2:1. Techies have all of 2021 and 22 to make sure of this.
Screw parties and voting. If Texas doesn't secede before 2022, it's over, baws.
Frogs in pots. Wake up.

He has an incredibly challenging road ahead in terms of shaping the conservative conversation. People in this country are getting so conditioned to having wokeness shoved down their throat in every aspect of their life that it becomes quietly accepted by many that opposition to progressiveness is hate
Give them credit for the branding and PR work they've done moving the goalposts. When their issue du jour is empowering trannys and exposing you to that in everyday life, the center becomes alot further left than it was just a few short years ago. And any talk about traditional family values begins to sound like hate and intolerance

The fact that the first two posters in this thread are noobs who seem to have a strong desire for 3 party fragmentation - should clue you in.

Because they hate him and want to destroy his legacy? They want revenge for him ever having been elected in the first place. We’ve known for years that it would be this way when he left office.
You think it’s because they are scared of a third party run? Because only the RNC is worried about a third party run.

You’re assuming all the voters that don’t go to the new party will automatically vote democrat. You are also assuming that the new party wouldn’t caucus with the Republican Party. Those are false premises.

I can’t wait for the midterm GOP gains just so this dumb comment will stop.
Republicans could have easily taken both Georgia seats two months after the POTUS election....but the GA GOP didn’t turn out like they had in November. Dominion didn’t cause that, and neither did Democrats.

Don't forget the new stopping of the election count during the night so they can determine how many more illegitimate ballots they need to add to the count.

So, you think they will magically turn out in 2022? Many will not toe the party line any longer, so the GOP better get creative in selecting their candidates and quit trotting out the same, tired trash...

What? I’m saying if you take the current vote share for both parties, and split the GOP in any significant way, that Democrats will easily. Nothing about new voters or anyone moving to the Democrats.

Caucusing has NOTHING to do with my point. They can caucus together all they want once in office. There won’t be enough of them and the GOP to obtain a majority, ever. They’ll be competing for the same voter base in elections, and the Democrats will retain their entire base.

I hold neither of those assumptions, so I’m not sure what you’re talking about.

Exhibit A to my point that Republican voters lost the elections in Georgia. Nothing to do with Democrats, voting machines, or anything else. Pure bad turnout.
