Yup, and so have the Dems.

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

Maybe but think back to Ross Perot's failed presidential bid. The only thing that Mr. Perot accomplished was sending Clinton and her husband back to the White House for four more years. In my opinion, if a third party is going to succeed they need candidates that have been household names (in a good way) for years and a platform that demonstrates a real commitment to getting this country back on track. Candidates need to be held accountable for what they say on the campaign trail to get elected.

I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.
