    You can get a successful new party but only if one of the two big ones completely self-destructs and creates a power vacuum. And even then the new party will probably be a faction of the defunct one. There definitely won’t be a three-party constellation for more than a brief period.

      completely self-destructs

      Well the GOP is on its way, and if they reform into a moderately sensible party, the dems will have to move left to actually differentiate themselves.

      I’m dreaming though.

          Sure, but they’re like a car trying to make it to the finish line with 2 flats and a broken axle. They lost a lot of support when they killed roe and are losing people on the trans culture war, if only because it’s been the only thing they’ve talked about for the past several years.

          Granted, a lot of dems are working hard to be unelectable, so we’ll have to see if the GOP can establish a fascist theocracy before they fall apart. It’s a toss up currently.
