The point is that there are tens of millions of people who are unreasonably terrified of “wasting their vote”. United we stand, divided we fall...
As someone, earlier, astutely pointed out (apologies for being lazy and not looking back to figure out who, but you know who you are), many did have their votes wasted, at least in part. If you voted on a Dominion machine, and the algorithm incorporates fractional voting, or shuffling votes to a thrid party with a correction to the D's, or just outright counts a part of the vote incorrectly, then you your vote was wasted in part or in whole.
The only thing that is killing third parties is effective leadership. The closest you've seen recently to a coalescing around a third part leader was with Ron Paul. Paul and libertarians, had/have solid ideas, but the leadership was weak. Fast forward to now, and you have hit and miss runs under that banner, and most recently Jo-Jo the BLM lover taking up the mantle. Damage done.
Again, you only have about 10% of republicans currently serving who don't reek of dead groundhog. They need to be drawn away from the party that will, in time, rot them as well. As you said:
The thing is, there are ALREADY Independent thinking republicans who are trying to run for office but they are losing at the primaries because too many people blow off voting in those.
My question is, jusxtapose those people running under the banner of a new, Trump-back party, vs the establishment republican, not in a primary, but in the regular runoff. Do you think people are going to go for the establisment republican in 2022, or 2024? Just skip the primary. Think new car smell.
I'm not interested in Repiblicans XP Servce Pack 2. There is no way to fix the party.
The first order of business should be a list of assholes who will never be allowed to run under, join, or participate in advising for the new party.
One last thing. You said:
You are starting down the path that the US Communist Party and Bernie Sanders’ Socialists already found out doesn’t work.
That's quite possibly the biggest instult that I've ever received on this site. Congratulations. Those words to my face would've ___________________________________.
End.

From what I have been able to gather this is all 100% very real and is so much worse than they are letting on in the media.
A literal Digital Pearl Harbor.

They have been used for high crimes. Also, I think if a person is tried as an enemy combatant they can be warranted. Also, I think the Insurrection Act may also have provisions for military tribunals.
In this 2016 CNN article written by Kayleigh McEnnany, she lists a number of cases historically where it has been done. In the georgetown link you will note that an appeal to the US Supreme Court should normally still be possible from a military tribunal...

Wood makes a specific reference (with date) to a recorded phone convo between Roberts and Breyer.
What did he get his hands on?
And.... WHO gave it to him?

The point I'm trying to make is that there is a solid chance, and reason, for Trump to start a new party. If he wins, dump the Republican party. If he loses, fire up a new party.
And again... there is simply no reason to do that.
All that needs to be done is to finish taking over the R party. This eliminates 98% of the massively hard work that would be needed to start from scratch.
Easily doable, especially if Trump pulls this off.
Wait, so all we have to do is replace 90% of the elected officials in the Republican party, and it's smooth sailing. Silly me.
Look, I saw every single one of my local state officials, including my state senator, state rep, and my congressional representative, ALL solid , logical thinking (or so I thought), conservative representation in central pa buckle 4 days after the election making statements that there was no fraud in the election. Since then, its been nothing but silence.
Not one damn person I voted for stood up, not one. In my eyes, they are like the mother who says nothing to the police out of fear while the father rapes his teenage daghter every night. Get it? Both mom and dad need to face hash punishment.
So don't come at me with all we have to do....were almost there...NO.
These effing people are part of the problem. They are the swamp. I have a whole bevy of other words that more acurately discribe them, but I'll stick with swamp, ATM. So when I hear people say, we just need to do X, or remove Y...I don't subscibe to that line of thinking.
It's time to break out of old habits and ways of thinkng, and the Republican brand just ain't it. Sorry.

This is about counting illegal aliens for the Census, right? Of course we have ultra liberal justice Breyer dissenting. We simply CANNOT count illegal aliens in the Census. It goes against everything that the Census is used for. They use the Census to determine the number of Reps a state gets in the House. Also, it is used to determine Electoral Votes for each state. And THIS, I believe is the entre crux of the matter as far as the Dems are concerned. They know that if they count all the illegals in each state, and those numbers contribute the the number of EC votes, that it will give them a permanent boost in EC numbers. This is all a demographic exercise to give the Dems a stranglehold on the House of Representatives, and the Electoral College, and by extension, the Presidential Elections in the future.

He's supposedly conservative yet has flipped on the cases most important to the preservation of our country, cases about blatant violations of our laws.
He has made statements, documented and some cited in this thread, expressing that he would use his power to prevent Trump from being legally elected.
He's rotten. Are you DEAF AND BLIND?!

"People whose politicians have been feeding them contracts, grants, privileges and immunity for decades aren't suddenly going to vote 3rd party."
Good point. Like I said up the page, not impossible, but plenty of those RNC heads are very entrenched. They're not just going to run off crying because someone pinched or pushed them. We're talking about an institution that has long since been corrupted by the globalist cabal, to be clear. Trump got through because he worked that system as far as I can tell, not because that system approved him.
