By all means if neither party suits your needs, start a third.
No need to start one. It's called Independent. Its where the free thinkers go.

So in regard to your post what you are saying is what? That as long as there is a GOP that you will ignore the wrongs of the Democratic Party? Because that is what most hardliners do. They pretend not to notice the lies, corruption or hypocrisy of their own. They prefer to get in line to stampede the party tour bus with the other hardliner groupies.

By the way illegals low ball everyone out of work. There is a very good reason illegals are so bold. They enjoy a great deal of support by politicians on the left.

They do jobs that Americans don't want. What American wants to clean houses or office buildings. What American can you hire to work on farms. They don't want these jobs so what should we do?

LOL, sure comrade. The only thing he’s missing is the beard and cigar. Maybe Bill Clinton can give him his supply of Lewinsky specials.

I'm saying that this board is overwhelmingly pro Trump and that every thread is an excuse to talk about how evil and horrible Democrats are.

Government overregulation and unfair trade agreements also threatens well paying blue collar jobs. The EPA's war on coal has had a devastating effect on West Virginia and Eastern Kentucky, and many of us here in Louisiana are well aware that the green new deal will be a terrible deal for us given the importance of oil and gas in our local economy. Coal mining, offshore drilling, pipelines, refineries and the plants all provide very well paying jobs for people without a college degree. It is VERY much in the economic self interest of working class white voters in South Louisiana to vote Republican and against overregulation. Blacks really should vote Republican too, many blacks also work in these industries, but they are too caught up in racial politics stoked by Obama, the Democrats and local Democrat leaders. Its very much in the best interest of rural voters in West Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio and Tennessee to vote Republican as the GOP supports the coal and natural gas industries.

The American steel industry has been oblierated by unfair trade agreements such as NAFTA and the China WTO deal signed by globalist politicians like Bill Clinton in order to redistribute American wealth to the rest of the world.

It seems to me the Trump bashers start enough of their own threads. That still doesn't address the mentality of the hardliners from both sides who absolutely refuse to hold their own even slightly accountable. They both will use the same excuses however, of why the sins of their own party don't matter.

That's the short and narrow of it. This board is basically a right wing circle jerk

The Democrats have become the illegal alien party.

There is no going back from that.
