Third party forming in the US

Looks like the Lincoln Project people are done playing nice and waiting for Trump and his ilk to be swept down the toilet.


“ Dozens of former Republican officials, who view the party as unwilling to stand up to former President Donald Trump and his attempts to undermine U.S. democracy, are in talks to form a center-right breakaway party, four people involved in the discussions told Reuters.”

KissMe,

I am not so sure Trump will fade into the background.

He feels humiliated and he will want to get back for that.

The last time he felt really humiliated was at a dinner where Obama ridiculed him mercilessly.

Trump's response? He became the President Obama had to turn the keys over to. Sweet revenge.

I would not underestimate the power of Trump's anger. And there WERE 70 million people voted for him. That is a LOT, even if you lose.

I sincerely hope I am wrong and you are right.

If the GOP does split up, the Dems are most likely to benefit, at least in the short run. Even Teddy Roosevelt couldn't get re-elected under the banner of a third party. In fact, it hasn't worked for any Presidential candidate in the last 150 years.

In the long run, however, the GOP has to get out from under Trump, even if it hurts them temporarily. He is too self-centered and too unstable to be tolerated as the kingmaker in their party. He is bad for them and I'm sure they are getting tired of him threatening to run candidiates against them in the primaries.

After a while, they have to either face up to the bully or just go put on their little sissy panties for keeps.

Let it go?

We are about the start to see the arrest of a former President of the United States.

This is history in the making.

I'll be on hiatus for a bit
Going back to school
So I can run up a quick $50k in debt
Arrange a kickback from the school
Then have it all be forgiven by the new monkeys running the zoo

Trump and other fools have damaged the Republican party for a long time. Republicans standing with Trump know they're full of shit but don't want to lose financial backing. We narrowly avoided a dictatorship and people want to ignore what happened in the past four years. It's hard to believe so many people could be brainwashed by such an obvious conman.

140,000 people have left the Republican party since Nov6.
Larger than normal. Who knows if more will leave when they actually have an alternative to go to.

For all of you....he is out of office!....he was impeached while in office. Republicans asked if Dems could delay the trial. Now they are using it as an excuse to not pay attention in proceedings and have already made their decision. Nevermind it was voted on...and was decided he could be tried...Republicans feel they can ignore that. It's like...I can speed because I dont agree with that law. They just wanted to add one more tiny bit of sore loserness to a banner year of sore loserness. Placing their own career above their party and country by bowing down and kissing Trump's ring.

You have to pass a basic test to be allowed to go back to school first, GBD.


Not sure you will.

If you attempt to kill the king and fail, the punishment is death.

Trump attempted to kill the king - drain the swamp - but the swamp defeated him, so he must be killed in the most public and humiliatingly way possible as an example to others. We in the servant class must learn the lesson, never, never, ever challenge our betters.

I am guessing a third party would pull its supporters from both parties. Time will tell.

Hey Shitcan...

So now you're supporting the same folks that you decried 4 or 8 years ago...

Remember the phrase "Neo-Cons"...that's the Lincoln Project.

Moron.

No, Lincoln Project is not the Neo-Cons, it’s the anti Trump GOP.

Do not confuse the two.

And I would prefer to have people of different political ideology that I respect rather than fools who can be easily led by a fool and keep showing why they need to considered fools for life.

The Lincoln Project are absolutely the neocons, and the grifter wing of the neocons at that. They are major assholes to a man, and everything they espouse is bad for the people of the USA.

What does it mean to be impeached when your not in office anymore?

Only president to be impeached twice and it still equals to fuck all.

Always funny to listen to George Stephanopolis get his panties all in a wad when he breathlessly talks about how Trump is the ONLY president to get impeached twice. Both are a joke and he will NEVER be convicted (they know that but gullible sheeple will fall over themselves anyway).

But MSM idiots will still headline this everyday and again, gullible sheeple will clap their hands and say 'right on'.

Keeping djt in the conversation is the only way to keep ratings from tanking like they had before he was elected.
I expect cnn, msnbc, fox etc to see ratings crash and burn.
It's already happened to fox.
