Who knows what the Republican party will be post-trump. I don't think it makes sense to run to a 3rd party just yet for them. And no one is following a Cheney to improve the lives of Americans.
The former. The latter wasn't really independent - and recent US political history would be quite different if it were. (Can you imagine if the GOP and a separate "Tea Party" had separate parties and then ran different candidates in the general election?)
The one time I can like FPTP - if this happens in the way that I want (with the GOP basically splitting) then it'd likely mean many more Dems wins across the board thanks to the conservative vote getting split.
Here’s the thing: A big, multi-issue campaign — the kind that wins elections — is more like a bus than an Uber. It’s probably not going to pick you up exactly where you are and drop you off exactly where you want to go.
You might not think that’s ideal. But you shouldn’t take a bus in the wrong direction out of spite — or sit on the curb and go nowhere.
Now this is brilliant. I'm going to use this for sure.
