Here we go.
Several months ago, I predicted something like this would happen. Trump is historically unpopular with Independents. We’ve seen this twice before when George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush neglected the economy in favor of launching glorious wars in the Middle East. Poppy Bush won a decisive victory in the Gulf War. W. eventually fought his way out of the quagmire in Iraq. Trump simply suffered a humiliating defeat in a war with Iran which was never popular or sold to the public.
“Conservative podcaster Tucker Carlson intends to start a new political party after disavowing President Trump and the Republican Party over the Iran war.
“I’m going to help build a third party,” Carlson said in an interview with the Columbia Journalism Review published Wednesday. “There should be a good-faith effort to figure out what benefits the country.”
The former Fox News host argued that when it comes to the two issues he views as most consequential for Americans – “war and finance” – Democrats and Republicans “are in lockstep solidarity with each other.”
“That’s not a democracy,” he said. “That’s a one-party state posing as a democracy, and it needs to be broken, and there’s going to be a third party, and I’m going to do everything I can to bring that about.” …”
What happens now?
If history is our guide, we would predict that Republicans will show up and vote for Republican candidates in the midterms like they do in every election whether they win or lose. Disgusted rightwing Independents, however, will probably bolt the GOP and vote for protest candidates like Ross Perot or disengage and park somewhere like the Constitution Party or Libertarian Party. The last two Republican presidents blew up their coalitions and the hangover haunted the GOP for a decade.
I believe the 2026 midterms will play out like the 2006 midterms. It will foreshadow a big defeat in the 2028 presidential race. We’re on track to repeat the Obama years with a Democratic president and Congress and a Republican candidate getting crushed like John McCain. McCain wanted to bomb Iran and he didn’t even get that far before losing Indiana, Iowa, North Carolina, Ohio and Florida. Virginia was lost permanently to Democrats and hasn’t voted for a Republican president since 2004.
Note: If memory serves, Obama won over a considerable number of Bush voters in 2008 because he ran as the antiwar candidate against the Iraq War.
> If memory serves, Obama won over a considerable number of Bush voters in 2008 because he ran as the antiwar candidate against the Iraq War.
Yes that’s actually true. Your memory failed to retain the fact that Obama never withdrew from Iraq, increased involvement in Trashcanistan and effectively started involvement in Syria and Jewkraine. Somehow the Mocha Messiah – awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for prezidin’ while Black – managed to get into as many wars as the retarded chimp who preceded him as teleprompter-reader in chief yet never had his base walk away from him (as happened with Jorge W. Busheron and now Cheetohead the God-Emperor).
The only real path to power is hijacking one of the two major parties.
A third party only makes sense as part of a plan to hijack a major party.
For instance, the DSA is really just a vehicle to hijack the Democrats, and it is starting to work. The “Uncommitted” movement in 2024 was another anti-Zionist strategy for hijacking the Democrats. Sabotage the party in the swing states, lose one election on purpose to facilitate your long term takeover of the party.
Trump’s 2016 campaign was another example of hijacking a political party. We thought the Republicans were being hijacked for American nationalism, but it seems they were hijacked for Trump’s personal benefit.
Ross Perot’s involvement in politics, on the other hand, was an exercise in futility, unless his real goal all along was to help Bill Clinton. (Clinton did balance the budget in his second term, which was Perot’s #1 issue.)
If Tucker wants to play hardball like the “Uncommitted Movement”, he will concentrate on getting registered in the seven swing states and he will run on a far right platform which will steal votes from the Republicans, not the Democrats.
If he builds a centrist platform, he is deluding himself into thinking he has a real chance to win as a third party candidate. He is deluding himself into thinking he can attract significant numbers of Democrat voters.
It seems like the latter is the case. He seems to be talking only about peace and populism, not immigration and culture.
The Bush voters that Obama won were mainly independents not Republicans. Obama mainly won because he drove turnout up with his own base.
Some people on the dissident right did wink and nod. For instance, Jared Taylor said openly that his race wasn’t necessarily a handicap, which is telling his followers that he doesn’t condemn them for voting for him. You didn’t vote, but in retrospect wrote about how at the time you would have understood someone voting for Obama given the alternative of McCain.
But like every other President before him and after him, Obama ran a dupe and sold out. GWB was in fact running against “nation building” in debates with Gore prior to 9/11.
