A "third party" will become a realistic option when one of the two parties essentially collapses. But in the US political parties don't die nearly as often as some people like to claim they do

Do not know if you are familiar with this guy, Chris Hedges? He paint a grim picture of why we got Trump as the most powerfull man in the world? He also paint a grim picture of the future of US economics - (and also the western economy for that matter- we will all suffer the consequeses) if the crazy wars are not stopped. I watched the whole speach he made 2 weeks ago. Btw, he say the phenomena, and what distress the neoliberlism has caused all over, is not limited to USA. Europa also suffer from it, not to mention the 3rd world who are exploited on a big scale.


Here is a clip if some of you are interested for some food for thought:

For once I agree with Trump.

China is a dictatorship that take advantage of both their own population as well as other countries. Trump do have the courage to address these problems and take counter measures, which is good. Problem is he is too unstable to do it correctly.
For starters, he should have convinced his allies to join him in the trade war against China. Instead he threatened them and put up tariffs against them too.

I have lived there for 6 years... Seen and heard some weird shit. Most Chinese people seem to need to live under a dictatorship though.

I wasn't aware that the postal system worked like it apparently does and it is beyond me how that have been allowed to continue for years and years.

If you have lived your whole life in a dictatorship with little contact with other nations, it's not strange if you do not understand how democracy could work.

Ye, I don’t get why it has been allowed to be like this for so long either. Trump may be unstable, but for better and worse, he isn’t afraid of conflict and addressing sensitive subjects.

I also think Trump have a few valid points here and there, unfortunately he is like a good conspiracy theorist. In the midst of what seems to be valid grounds for their theory, they pull out a random quote from the bible.

what valid points do you think he have? and how did he make polecy out of them? Following US politics pretty closely over the last 3 years, I do think Trump made some good points during the campaign. Like draining the swamp for instance. But what has he been doing over the last 3 years? I would say that is a totally different thing. Instead of draining the swamp, he has hired "it" to the highest positions in government.

this mid term is also about GOP panicking, and doing even more voter suppression than ever before (could give you some links if you doubt it)
