But he was aggressively talked out of it and instead they rallied the rest of the party into being a cult. If Trump HAD succeeded in creating a MAGA party alongside Democrats and Republicans, Democrats would sweep almost all elections Trump didn't make a new party. The tea party followed by Trump took over the party through very active engagement during the primaries. And primaries at all level. That's what Democrats need to do. Meanwhile last year a lot of the left were whining that there was no primary to replace Biden with virtually no engagement to primary the people in Congress. Then a lot of them didn't vote which is effectively the same impact as forming a 3rd party. UnfairRepresent posted... I'm saying to quote Black Stone Cherry, you can't win a war fighting with your brother. If we're fighting ourselves more than the fascists, then we are aiding fascists. We're basically performing the Red Wedding while the Whitewalkers are at our doorstep. Active engagement in primaries is not a red wedding. It's a competition to ensure you selected the best team to send to the Olympics. --- "Something's wrong!
