New Parties will never survive

they haven't learned anything from 2016

because if they do what they did for 2016 trump will hold 2020.

We can have Tim as our leader

lol

Both are getting a little too confident

The best and only real time for new parties would've been the 2016 election

i dont want to be in charge of anything

Lack of a proper opponent caused them to lower their guards

<:ancap:294617629321199618> anarcho-capitalist party when

They got fat.

@Timcast What if we democratically elect you as our leader?

Now people are so distraught over everything, that if a centrist party came out, both sides would attempt to destroy it

neither does sargon but he is writing a manifesto lol

Cant force someone apparently

Well, good luck however. We will be watching

thb I don't think he's getting 2020 either, but I think he has "served" an important purpose; he's made both political parties question everything and re-evaluate themselves. He mad the dems realize they don't have a base they can abuse continuously, the reps release their "youth vote" doesn't see eye-to-eye with their stuck in the mud attitude.

where's my anarcho-nationalist people's socialist republics party of greater utah?

Who knows really? It was only around a year ago people said he had no chance.

Things can change drastically in a while.

Or maybe people got too confident there.

@Porcelain chips I'm not sure the Democrat or Republican parties as a whole are self-aware enough to realize that

none of it really matters because either way the US is regressing towards Plato's republic

@Porcelain chips Look at Democrats, everything they're doing currently points to them just waiting out Trump so they can get back to their agendas first in 2018 by repealing everything, and 2020 by "taking back" the Presidency

that's all they want

Tulsi Gabbard from Hawaii is DNC but seems reasonable. What about her as Presidential Candidate?

Just to go back to their agendas

or is she not in the suitpants-afficionado circle?

Isnt it a narrative that theres a significant portion of people who are neither. Like the people who went Obama -> Bernie -> Trump?

And didnt vote Johnson cause wasted vote

@GingaBomber I was one of those

Down to the T?

Yep

Tulsi Gabbard won't get the support from the party, they will go for someone like Andrew Cuomo instead

Huh... Okay then

Didnt expect that to be an answer

Just because it's a "narrative" doesn't mean it doesn't have some truth to it

Well, I kinda made it up from memory. I mean I have seen people admit that

well, a shame that good people cant get up by their own merits anymore 😉

Most just wanted change

And well, people like those 3 being candidates were a symtom, people wanted to be back in control
