I think it will be interesting to see if the Greens nominate Jill Stein again.
And you never know what The Libertarians will come up with.

(24,470 posts)Has there been any hint that there will be any (major) 3rd or 4th Parties running next year? Or does that only ever (coincidentally) happen after a Democrat has been in the WH?

(42,037 posts)They think they are above the fray, and if only we would shrink government to basic functions, understand that taxation is theft, have a completely free and unregulated market economy, an isolationist foreign policy (this is where they get their anti-war stance), why then, all shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
They are unrealistic AF, smug enthusiasts, and they're a lot of people who get dragged down that pseudo intellectual toilet.
Greens seem to have a scorched earth political agenda. Ironic.
