You can’t skip right to a third party presidential candidate without making progress with that party locally first
I swear to God. It’s like trying to tell a child you can’t have ice cream because you’re stranded on a desert island and they KEEP INSISTING that they want ice cream.
It’s infuriating.
Like, it isn’t complicated. You can’t start at the beginning of a board game, roll a 6, and move your piece 57 spaces to the end and win. That’s impossible.
It’s wild how many Americans exist outside reality.
This absolutely can happen, but its not popular in America. Americans just want to vote for their team, at least the majority of them.
And your example is absurd, Trump himself skipped the entire game, and then took over one of the parties.
The only wild thing here is that you lack any creative thought to find a better solution than to vote for democrats and hope the country doesn’t fall apart by the time you pass away.
And theoretically all humans can live in peace and harmony with one another. Doesn’t mean it’s happening.
Trump himself skipped the entire game
Yeah, but he ran as the candidate for one of the two main parties. That is in no way equivalent to a 3rd party presidential candidate winning. Your comparison is absurd.

My child. The only solution you’ve indicated is voting 3rd party, which I’ve clearly explained to you is not a viable option. That isn’t an opinion. It’s a fact. It’s a fact because no 3rd party has any influence. It’s a fact because the most popular 3rd party candidate can’t even break 1% of the votes.
Why do you choose to live in a fantasy? Is real life just too hard?
No, they’re right - the Constitution says the person who receives the most votes is President. With the added fuckery of the Slaver’s College, third parties have an unbelievably hard lift to get anywhere close to President.
It’s just not going to happen without a huge base, and there isn’t one. There never is. Just stunt candidates ripping people off for fun & profit.

“Not popular” literally means it won’t happen, you are restating my point.
You know Trump ran in 2000, right? And that he isn’t a third-party candidate?
If you want to hijack the Democrats like Trump hijacked the Republicans, that’s a good strategy!
Give me a creative solution that understands the system, and the math involved, and I’m entirely on board. But wishing isn’t enough.

Got a better plan?

The only way to get to huge is through small.
Woah. That’s, like . . . true.
I guess we should keep voting for the people who are taking advantage of everyone else then.
As everyone is trying to point out, not voting against them also works.
