why try? both parties are horrible.
yup. both parties suck and all you have is bad option A or bad option B and you just wind up picking what you think is the lesser of two evils.

Oh I think y'all should go ahead and try.  It's better than doing nothing.  I guess.

I just don't think you'll have much success. As the rest of your post confirms.

Bullshit party identity unfortunately tends to trump all.
yup. this tweet highlights a great example of what you just said...

3rd party guy who is Option C almost never wins, and then even if he gets into power he typically cliques up with one of Option A or Option B and then cucks for one of them even though they hate him and stab him in the back at every single turn possible. see; Sanders, Bernie.

A single vote is irrelevant as to who wins.  Vote for who you want, it doesn't matter.  At all.  Ever.

Trump is really going off the rails threatening to arrest and denaturalize the NYC mayor guy....have to say do not agree with some of this guys policies (communism is stupid) but he is a damn impressive politician. just watch the debates, some of the ads he did for the primary, some clips of him talking to constituents on the street and things like this below and it's easy to see why he won the primary and killed Andrew Cuomo- a member of a prominent NYC Democrat political dynasty.

Unfortunately this is all to evident,many don't love Donnie at all.But he's much improvement over those forcing "immunity" shots that arent, the gender benders claiming "men can have babies" and putting tampon machines in "Boy's" bathrooms

I love how the ire is aimed at the candidate and not at the voters.  

Just as with Trump, they deserve who they vote for.  

It takes some bad decisions to get people to take this shit seriously and vote for someone boring and ethical (well, more boring and ethical).  Not someone who you'd like to have a beer with, not someone you recognize from TV, etc.  

The voters are the embarrassment, not the candidates.

The government is already in the grocery business. They're called the commissary, and they're on military bases around the world. They work quite well, thank you very much.

We've gotta come up with a different phrase than "he got off."

I have never really felt aligned with either party. In fact, they tend to both piss me off most of the time.  

There have been times I felt compelled to vote for a candidate because I like the candidate such as Ronald Reagan, for example, or even Obama during his first run  

But I have never felt as far away from party as I do now from the Democrats. It’s hard to understand their positions on things which are really just not common sense and are outrageous. Having open borders, defending the police, having men playing women’s sports, it just goes on and on and on. They clearly favor other parties over the good of America and it’s just hard to accept anything. They stand for today
