The ONLY way a new party has ANY chance of success is if Trump leads it...and if he does so, I will follow him down that path. I've been clear on that. What I'm saying, is that I believe a better option is for him to take the GOP and make it into what he believes it should be...which in effect IS no different than starting a new party from scratch and dividing Republicans into opposed factions. If that means renaming the GOP as the MAGA party and calling that a "new" party...go for it if that's effective marketing. The bottom line is not what you call this new party...but as Bilo said above...that it truly IS the party of the middle class. No more country club elites and Neo-con interventionists.
But the truth is Trump cannot do this alone...he must have people like Cruz, Crenshaw, Noem and many others with him to make this happen...be it reshaping the GOP or starting something new.
Way too many here are misunderstanding the dangers of splitting the right into two parties. RIV...I get what you want...but do you realize that people like Roamer, goat, and others will NEVER except a 3rd party on the right led by Trump. How do you square that with wanting Trump to lead the movement to start a new conservative party? How can that be achieved with creating a strategic disaster in electoral terms? These are not trick questions...I genuinely want to know how that goes down, because it looks like a path to division and defeat to me. Taking the GOP and FORCING it to be a MAGA party...that is hard as well but seems far more likely to succeed with Trump leading THAT fight.
