Renew America Party?

[Saltwater60]

Thoughts. I read through this web site and it seems to lack a lot of information. I was sent an email asking for money of course. I asked where the party stands on the 2a and said I need some more details on the party platform prior to lending my support. I did praise them for offering a potential viable third party because I lack trust in D and R party to do the right thing, as I think many others do.

Not to be a dick or anything.

But I have an issue with each one of those points.

Besides that, remember what happened to the Tea Party once they started to get a foothold?
So that's something to consider too.

Unfortunately, I just don't think an emerging political party has a chance.
Both sides of the establishment will see to that. IMO ... aka Tea Party.

Not being a dick. That’s why I asked for more information, crickets. Their bullet points are very vague and can lean either way.

"People. We are standing alongside principled Democrats, Republicans, and Independents who have the courage to stand up against political extremists across the country."

- Principled Democrats - No such thing as far as I'm concerned.

Policy. We are advancing policies needed for a healthy democracy, such as the protection of voting rights.

- Healthy Democracy - We are not a democracy.

Process. We are investing in reforms to the democratic process itself to increase competition and choice in American elections.

- Good luck with that, not happening. The establishment will make sure of that. aka Tea Party.

By working together across party lines, we can shift the balance of power in Washington, DC away from those who want to dismantle democracy’s guardrails and back to real leaders who will put country over party.

- I'm no longer willing to work across party lines. These are not your father's Democrats.
- The Democrat Party has been hijacked by radicals. It's time to pick a side.
- I will not work with a group of people (Dems) that are trying to change my way of life.
- I will not work with a group (Dems) that is hell bent on disarming me and my fellow Americans.

As always, words either have meaning or they don't
For a start up political party they should pay more attention to detail IMO.

I'm not trying to shoot them down. I'm just so skeptical at this point. And rightly so.

Anyways, FWIW that's my 2 cents.

They are all different sides of the same coin. Once they get a following, they will smell the power of numbers and it will be SSDD. The Tea Party was a perfect example.

Just based on what I can find on their website, I will bet dollars to donuts their platform will be a lot more anti-2A than anyone here is willing to swallow.

I find myself very distrustful of political parties talking about "common sense." As we've seen from the Democrats, that means "what I think is right, and anyone who disagrees with me is wrong/uneducated/racist."

I did google a few of the top members and they all seemed 2a friendly, but I have not received anything back from them.

The Dems have been hijacked by fanatics.

So have the republicans. I hope one day you will see that.

That’s why this group says fuck both parties. I like the idea but have a hard time picturing the rabidly partisan average American joining a third party.

I am anti-party. Can't even support the Conservative Party any more, particularly in NY. Partisan politics are wholly responsible for the death of this republic.

I agree, and it's past time that true Democrats take the party back to what it was supposed to be.

- I will not work with a group of people (Dems) that are trying to change my way of life.
- I will not work with a group (Dems) that is hell bent on disarming me and my fellow Americans.

I will also not work with a group of people (Repubs) that are trying to destroy the very concept of America and turn it into a religious theocracy.

Yea, the answer is to take over an existing party, like Trump did.

Trying to build a new one from scratch is a losing proposition.
