Trump Has Discussed Starting a New Political Party - WSJ.com

President Trump has talked in recent days with associates about forming a new political party, according to people familiar with the matter,

WSJ

huh this seems significant. also worth noting that white supremacists and nationalists have been talking about a patriot party for a while, which got more acknowlged after the capitol. so maybe some of trumps staff told him about it

to all the people in the notes talking about this as a good thing. its really not. dont be incredibly short sighted and celebrate because you think a far-right third party will never be popular. research the far right and the history of fascism, because the existence of a new party that is explicitly nationalist and formed to oppose the other established parties for being corrupt and ineffective points to the possibility for a real organized fascist movement to develop. please fucking think about this in the long term. it might seem ridiculous now but so much of what would have “seemed ridiculous” years ago is now normal because the political conditions have changed so drastically. do you really think anything is going to stop

this is why paying attention in history class matters
