Further right than Romney, to be sure.. but he's no MTG.

Clearly, we need a third, or 4th, party so the various capital hill kingdoms learn how to negotiate and compromise, or nothing gets done.

UC - that would put us in a British parliamentary system - I think

is taht a good thing - I am unsure.

Our current parties are stuck in a morass of opposition to each other that supercedes rational thought on issues.

IMHO.

Yes - I am a Conservative - i support our Constitution and Equality for All under teh law - and as such - would die to protect teh rights of a different opinion of teh Democraticommunists.

That is teh Liberty adn Freedom So many of our citizens have died fighting for.



Liberty adn freedom teh Democraticommunists wish to throw on teh trash heap in favor of failed marxist -Leninist-Stalinist nomenklatura tyrranny.

MTG-- Marjorie Taylor Greene


And while technically-- it would somewhat be like the UK system.... the 2 parties aside from Labour and Tories tend to just align with either Labour or Tories to get things done... meaning its essentially a 2 party system with 4 parties. Friend of mine is a MP (member of parliament) over there. Its a hot mess.

UK runs a parliament multi-party democracy. that's how those elections spill out. hot mess or not.

one of the problems of democracy is that a bad actor can pervert its system by putting their own people in many areas of power and have the ability to call their narrative like Stalin did.
