    I’m hoping for a third party I can vote for. As a ‘right wing’, ‘liberal’, and whatever other labels you want to put on me… the R’s stated values most closely match what I want in general, but i’ve votes mostly thrid party for decades now as few I can trust to vote my values are running. The third party I vote for is of course wackos I wouldn’t want to win, but they won’t and maybe my vote sends a message.

      I mean, that’s all I really know, knowing what the R’s stated values are, to tell that you are not a person I ever want to associate with. Because their stated values are monstrous.

        You have no idea which values I stand for, and which I have a problem with, but you have already judged me? We learned a lot about you.

          You said you stand for Republican values. Nothing on the Republican party platform is defensible. Have you read it?

      Green Party has Dr. Cornel West!

      Libertarian Party also runs people during General Election.

        Why would you bother voting for either? No one will know unless you tell them and it will change absolutely nothing.

        Libertarians have a proven track record of never winning anything and Greens don’t even run in down ballot races but expect to win nationally. Not even in terms of their ideology, they’re useless.

          Voting for Trump or Biden did not help working people.

          They are both useless and corrupt.

          Voting 3rd Party is a start, in the long term, instead of just looking at the short term.
