A lot of conservatives â and we do mean
a lot of conservatives â have had it with the Republican Party. The ineptitude, the infighting, and the ideological wishy-washiness are longstanding problems in the GOP. The Tea Partyâs rise a decade ago was as much a response to this Republican fecklessness as it was to Barack Obama and the Democratsâ spendthrift socialist bonanza. And for decades now there have been not just rumblings but occasional attempts to get a viable third party going. The 2020 election fiasco, which many conservative voters see as the GOPâs woefully insufficient effort to stop a stolen election, is driving talk of a third party yet again with Donald Trump at its head.
