Here's Why President Trump Should Not Form a New Political Party: Trump’s base needs to become one of the new factions that strikes a deal to build a new coalition.

We need to have a new Party, but as much I respect Trump, it needs to be formed around principles that carry it forward, not just the personality of one man.

It seems Senator Rubio has had some real change of heart on immigration.

No, he hasn’t, is anyone stupid enough to believe that?

Already changed mine from R to NPA. Hell yes, I’ll join a new party.

For the RNC Fluffers who always show on these threads: enjoy your knee pads. Carry mouthwash!

The only way to purge the GOP is hanging the lot of them.
And i don’t think anybody has the will to do that.🙄

Disagree.

This is all old-think.

No one has EVER been in the position Trump is in, with 75 million “sticky” supporters, a campaign mechanism, and a hoard of pissed-off supporters who know they were robbed by the corrupt Ruling Class.

THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A BETTER TIME OR PERSON TO MAKE A THIRD PARTY WORK.

The GOP would be broken, probably lose 50% or more of its members. Then, we’ll talk about coalitions, from a position of strength.

Trump supporters ARE the republican party.

We need to oust the uniparty LEADERSHIP.

Dem administrations in WI, MI and PA jumped at the chance to have VBM.

It doesn’t matter if you have a new party or not. Unless VBM is stopped, nothing one can do will win anything.
_____________________________________________________________________________________

The more reason to have a NEW Party with the #1 item on their platform - Voter Security and Integrity! No more VBM, vote harvesting, etc...FYI- The Republican Party had total control of the White House, Congress and majority in the SCOTUS for two cycles over the past 20 years as well as the majority of governorships and state legislatures and they did NOTHING! NOTHING! They sat by and watched and let this happen on THEIR watch! This is inexcusable! Nope...done! Walked away from the GOP last month (registered since ‘88) and not going back!

No way. Now is the time to create a new party and to take away sane voters from both parties. There are many Democrats who do not like their party’s new direction but they know GOP leadership are snakes.

Yep. But all the “do it”, “don’t do it” pieces I’ve read treat the options as mutually exclusive. They aren’t.

A new party should always be a threat on the table, and that threat can run state by state. Likewise, Trump can pick off individual GOP members and advocate that the GOP expel others. Somehow get globalist candidates to wander in the wilderness or join the DEM party.

No deals with the GOP. It is a globalist and corrupt institution right now, and certainly cannot be trusted. No deals, no coalition. Candidate by candidate.

Representative Matt Gates appeared on Lou Dobbs' television program last night and courageously identified the problem: pac money.

The Republican establishment has sold out to moneyed interests out of fear of losing these contributions which dominates both parties and both houses of Congress. This is why there is no disposition, for example, among Senate leadership to fight the election fraud or the bogus impeachment charges.

My observation: I do not know how reform of the Republican Party rather than replacement works so long as Mitch McConnell and the rest of the establishment have a death hold on the Republican side of the Senate institution, enabled as they are by pac money that is funneled through them.

If reform is therefore not possible then replacement is necessary. On to the Patriot Party.

It would only work if he gutted the party of the RINOs.

Failure to gut the Obama holdovers was probably his biggest mistake as President. He likely thought he could work with them. He apparently didn’t realize how vicious they would be.

The same ones who destroyed the Tea Party movement — both from within and from the outside — are at work trying to destroy the ‘Trump’ movement. They make the 1990s Clinton scorched earth and politics of personal destruct look like child’s play.

Well, yes - but that’s true of any politician. The problem is that for too long, the GOP hierarchy has dismissed the wishes of its base with impunity. They need to be scared into action by the threat of losing their seats and their perks and their large donor contributions. Rick Scott vowing the other day to help all incumbents against primary challengers is the exact problem.

It depends upon whether or not you can rid the Republican party of the RINOS. And, you will also have to separate them from the uniparty in DC. It might be easier to blow it up and start over.
