46. A third party...yes its time but not now......
If this third party was launched now it would guarantee a Republican victory..After the election would be the correct timing because voters would see it as a serious political party and more apt to join...they would(with good reason) look at a third party as a way of disrupting the election if it was launched now..About Hillary...Well the Republicans are ready for her and she can't win..Hillary would , as many have said,unite the Republican party
