They should make their own party with blackjack and hookers. A third party that isn't sleepwalking like the democrats could actually win in this shitshow
Not sure how you envision this. It’s not a winning strategy to have a third party run for election. The best outcome by far is if AOC is the Democratic presidential candidate in 2028.
Lincoln was a Whig before a 'third' party came along. The calls for a new party aren't necessarily to form a third party. They are calls to form a party in power.
Apparently it's not a winning strategy to have Democrats run for elections either, so what's there to lose?
You think the DNC would let AOC anywhere near candidacy? They torpedoed Bernie. They seem quite content with their failing platform.
That's already happening without a new party. AOC has got some of the thickest skin in DC, she'd be fine.
A new party isn't going to go anywhere without big established names leaving the Democrats and leading the new one though.
They'd need to start ASAP, though.
Not if it gets started further than a month out from the election and doesn’t mysteriously disappear immediately after
Lol we don't need Republicans 2™️
You've already got it.
Revenge of the Whigs
(This time everyone has to wear powdered wigs.)
May I also have syphilis?
You can have a little syphilis, as a treat.
Ye-eee-eeee-sssss!
Live in the US any longer and it’s going to become a greatest hits album of communicable diseases regardless.
