I’m all in for a third party that stabilizes our democracy and supports civilized political debate again. One shouldn’t have to hide their ideological stances because people have lost their collective minds around a perception that they have lost what is “theirs” nor should we continue to bolster up the victimhood mentality plaguing both of our major political parties. Folks we need to grow a pair and get moving. It gets worse before it gets better…

Decades ago, the Encyclopedia Britannica put out a 16 volume series called the Annals of American History. It includes a Fortune article dated April 1949 by Robert A. Taft (son of President Howard Taft) called "The Republican Party". It should be required reading by every Republican. In brief, it lays out what the Republican Party used to be, calling for principles on human liberty, peace, higher standards of living, ways to prevent hardship and poverty, equal justice, etc. I don't agree with everything he proposed, but the man had principles, and he genuinely wanted the best for the US. Would the party had such men or women of such vision today! Of course, Trump and his spineless sycophants would be calling to tar and feather him.
