Evan McMullin, with others in talks to form anti-Trump third party

Post by kirtland r.m. »

What a bunch of pin heads. Finally we have had a President who makes policy like Reagan, and Rhinos and other middle of the road "republicans" turn on him. New Utah Governor Spencer Cox also fits right in with this crew, and I saw video of him denying any problems with election, and calling Trump a lair on that issue. There were many and varied real problems.

Dozens of former Republican officials, including Evan McMullin, in talks to form anti-Trump third party. By Tim Reid, Reuters | Updated - Feb. 10, 2021 at 10:01 p.m. | Posted - Feb. 10, 2021 at 7:43 p.m. https://www.ksl.com/article/50105376/do ... hird-party

They are not standing with about 95% of Trump voters, and therefore are not representing, but are undermining conservative/republican voters, demonstrating the deepness of the Washington swamp, among other things.

That's not going to end well for either side.

In fact, if Trump DOES end up getting convicted, I would see it more likely that a new party, probably called the American Party or Patriot Party, gets formed and starts winning adepts. GOP will go the way of the Whigs.

There could also be a split in the Democrat Party too as there is infighting between the left and centrist wings of that party; Manchin is causing them pain right now.

Egg N McMuffin is back? Come on Man! One of the more obvious DS shills of all time! Did he ever get married or is he still trying to decide which letter he identifies with?

This would be nice, if a bunch of Democrats would flock to it... Then we would have four parties!

I agree. It might attract the bunch of Democrats plus a substantial bunch of anti-Trump Repubs. The result being weakened and fractured Democrat and Republican Parties, thus giving more chance for the 75-100,000,000 pro-Trump voters to move to a new party, which could then cream the other 3 parties. I love it. First good move I've seen McMuffin make. I encourage him.
