    Third party is typically a vote for Republicans. I’m not sure why democrats never seem to put up a plant 3rd party. Just get some Uber Ultra Instinct racist and that peel of at least 10% of the Trump voters.

      a so-called third party vote is a vote for the so-called third party.

      That’s your narrative, sure. I won’t support a two-party system that produces such TERRIBLE candidates anymore.

        The two party system exists whether you support it or not and voting third party doesn’t help remove it.

          It gets a third or fourth party government funding. That’s more important than anything to me currently. We need more choices.

            Getting a third party is more important than…

            …preventing an overt fascist and his sycophantic supporters and enablers from winning the next election, further dismantling (small-d) democratic institutions in our country, and likely attempting to turn the country into a weird hybrid of a kleptocratic monarchy and an extremely nepotistic aristocracy?
