Nearly two in five Democratic-leaning voters would consider joining a non-Musk-led third party.

    If someone like AOC or Mamdani ran third party for the, theoretical, next presidential election I would vote for them. Since any third party candidate I would vote for would be unlikely to get large corporate/billionaire donations they should start campaigning now so they have time to build up a grassroots machine to get their message and name out there.

      It’s your vote. And honestly, presidential elections are meaningless beyond keeping Republicans out currently.

      I would much rather see AOC or Mamdami focus on helping to build other state legislatures up as allies. That would be the best way to actually get things done. So much effort is wasted on the presidency. And not spent in the legislature, which is where the fascists have gotten most of their victories from.
