Mid-terms are in two years. Is that enough time to begin to break the two party system? As angry as we all are, can we collectively swallow our pride and try and build bridges with our maga-friends, family, and neighbors. Try and get them to see how our politicians are trying to hurt us? Is it enough time to find volunteers to run for office in county, city, and state positions?

At the end of the day, this isn’t just a Trump problem. Our democratic officials also voted to ban TikTok and silence us. They also voted to send money to Isreal when we all demanded they stop. With an exception of a handful of our representatives, they don’t care about us. They’re ready and willing to accept money from anyone.

I’m tired of only hearing about third party options during presidential elections when they have no chance of winning. Only to disappear again once the election is over. I want third party options in my local government. I want third parties in congress.
