Time for a third party - nuts to the left, nuts to the right, normal is in the middle

Time for a third party - nuts to the left, nuts to the right, normal is in the middle.
We have far left having too much influence on the Democrat party and extremist Trumpism taking over the Republican party. They are all nuts. I would like to take both groups and kick their sorry ass out of the USA, but the Constitution will not allow that.
We need a new party for normal, balanced people. Republicans represent 25% of the population, Democrats represent 31% of the population. The new party could be 44%.

There is no "middle".

I think so too, but I've given up on the idea. At least for now.

The two parties now are so unattractive that the need for a third party in between them is obvious. And you'd think that many from both parties would jump ship if a decent alternative popped up. But our system, as it is today, just doesn't allow for it. And worse, our society is so tribal and binary now that it's tough to imagine that moderate lefties and moderate righties in leadership positions would even talk to each other.

I hope I'm wrong. This is a shit show.

Liberals should definitely create a third party.

Democrats represent 31% of the population.

You clowns are nowhere near 31%

Their Chinese masters would be livid if they backed the American workingman.

If I'm considered a "nut" because:

1. I believe in ALL amendments, including the 2nd.
2. I believe its wrong to kill babies in the womb
3. I think all lives matter.
4. I don't think legalizing pot is the answer to the drug problem.
5. I believe in a mommy AND a daddy in a relationship
6. I don't think you can change your sex or "pick" your sex
7. I think kids should be in school full time

Then yea, I'm a right wing nut and damn proud of it. I'm not going to give in on any of those. Those used to be known as "core principals" now they're "nutter" stuff. We don't need a 3rd party, we need the left to come back more toward the middle. The right hasn't changed much since Reagan, the left has gone WAY left.

The middle isn't normal...its weak and frightened....God respects fighters not wishy washy middle of the roaders...choose a side or get run over....

We already tried middle of the road. All it spawned was self enriching politicians and total sell-outs!

I've been called a lot of things... Weak and frightened is a new one.

The left today is pushing socialism and is in eyesight of communism. The right has no conservatism. At least conservatism that has real push. The Republican Party seems to have a lot of agendas from the 1950's and 1960's Dems or closer to it And they are ostricized for that. So your middle party would be between those two marks.

Your 'too far left' is what is considered pretty close to normal in all the world's leading democracies. There's hardly room for any so-called middle.

America has no choice but to change to middle road or moderate left over time. There's no answer in the right and Trump didn't propose any such thing. Trump's support was simply angry ripped off American working people.

Inevitably, sooner or later Americans are going to have to ask themselves what they're so pissed off about.

Elizabeth Warren has explained the way out of the hell America's politics has created for the people. It's as simple as putting limits on big money with a sensible level of taxation.

The Bush family is the middle...look what that got us...a 20 year war...

 

[ElmerMudd]

There is no "middle".

There is a middle. There is a middle to every measurable in the universe. Extremists look at the middle as the enemy.
Trumpists and far left whackos have more in common than they have differences.

Far left whackos and you are two peas in a pod.

A middle party has one foot on the dock and the other in a canoe, while the Gulf is widening.

My wild-ass guess is that that's where we're heading. What no one saw coming was this final, ugly primal scream from much of the Right. And my concern is that the reaction to this primal scream will pull us too far to the Left.
