Also, if we're gonna have a 3rd party president, that is the last step.
You need allies in congress to get anything done, 3rd parties have next to none.
You want a thriving 3rd party? VOTE IN THE PRIMARIES and get out into your community to do the work.
God, this is the one thing I want people who constantly whine about the Dems and GOP to realize: if you want a third party, you have to help it grow from the ground up. Voting third party only in the presidential election is a limp, half-assed protest that doesn’t actually help anyone.
Sadly we live in a world of instant gratification and have done so for a couple of decades. If the progressive movement had started their push back in the 80s like they should have we would have a viable 3rd party today. Meanwhile the GOP was ripe for a takeover being a minority of the population overall and have been courting all the extreme groups for decades to win the national election, and here we are today with the GOP now taken over by MAGA. It took them decades to accomplish but here we are.
I keep trying to explain to the third party crowd that their own political parties aren't serious about winning or leading anything. They're just trying to get platformed. The indication of a serious political party is its ability to run and win at the local and state levels, not POTUS. Most of the parties people are talking about don't even try to run low level candidates. They just show up 10 months before every POTUS election, lambast working folks for not knowing who they are, collect a few thousand dollars in donations, then go home.
