No thank you.


As opposed to what? RINOs that bow to the Democrat Party and never fight for anything? If the GOP establishment is that fricking stupid well than frick em they deserve to die.

I am 100% going to any party he throws. That man has access to more solid young (but legal) a$$ than Epstein. Frankly the dudes roster of old a$$ is also solid. It will be a fiesta deluxe provide he doesn’t dance.

If he can’t win as a Republican in 2024 because the RINOs can’t get on board and fight him at every step and the RINOs are 100% sure he can’t win, then why not? Burn it down.

Hell yes. Anyone who can’t see rebuilding is not an option is lost anyway. Burn it to the MF’ing ground.

The McConnell and McCarthy/Paul Ryan Republican Party today are left of Bill Clinton.

You think the GOP is more likely to be burned down than MAGA?

Trump is 76 years old. There is a shelf life on how a Trump third party would live. No one can replicate what Trump does and when he dies so would the party and the GOP would be screwed up.

It's better to change the GOP from within rather than destroy it. The Dems sure did that. They used to be a somewhat reasonable party that "stuck up for the little guy" and the far left took it over.

If he does, it will spell the end to the Republican Party and ensure Democrats will win every federal election for years to come. I have always been a Trump supporter but I am among a growing number of conservatives who recognize that splitting the dwindling number of voters we have going to the polls will create the Ross Perot syndrome and play into the Democrart’s hands. We would also lose the so-called independent vote.

Doesn't matter if election theft doesn't get fixed...a new party will only divide the votes further

get rid of mail in ballots first

No I disagree here, the only way to change the GOP is to crush the establishment first and if Trump is the vehicle to do this than so be it.

This sounds like 1 of the 10000000000 other lies the MSM makes up. I'll believe it when I see it.

Honestly no he would run third party and I think that just gives the dems the election. There’s no winning play by going third party. The two party system has failed us to that degree

How are you going to do that without anywhere close to a majority of the party? The GOPe probably has a 4:1 or 5:1 advantage.

No.

But MAGA is not going away and there are more people that support MAGA policies even if they do not know the policies they support are MAGA.

The problem a third party faces is the zombie vote. People voting for a candidate just because they have a D or R behind their names. That is a solid advantage. Maybe a “T” behind politicians names can break many voters out of their stupor.

Yes. I've felt from the start that by needing the GOP's backing, Trump was only going to be effective as a temporary interruption.

If any real change is going to come to our uniparty system, the pretend opposition has to be taken down for good first.

I would, but unfortunately this would ensure democrat rule forever.

Not even close to what would happen with 12-20 years of democrat dominance. If you've got any real skin in the game, you can't afford to "let it burn" or whatever other petulant phrase you can conjure.
