Both of the two major parties started out as third parties. And right now is exactly the kind of historical scenario where new parties tend to form in a two-party system. The Democratic party’s brand is mud. People are sick of both parties. That’s the exact scenario that leads to successful third parties.
I think this is more directed towards the people who wait until the year of the presidential election to start agitating for a third party with no other national presence for the presidency under the bizarre notion that everyone is a secret leftist just waiting for The Party™ to finally catch their attention.
Now is a good time to start a third party! But a serious attempt to start a third party would involve first contesting state legislations and vulnerable Congressional seats rather than the ritual every-four-years Hail Mary we normally see from third parties.
A third party would involve educating and convincing voters on why they should look outside of the current dichotomy - not just picking up the masses of dissatisfied people like flipped pogs.
Not saying you’re suggesting a senseless Hail Mary or anything like that - just got going on the subject and couldn’t stop, lmao.
