    2 party system is almost the same as 1 party dictatorship. You do need unlimited amount of parties to have any kind of democracy

      We definitely don’t have a two party system. Trump came in and invented a whole new party just like that. We have republicans, democrats and trumpers.

        Pro-Trump Republicans and anti-Trump Republicans are not at all separate parties, and 99% of anti-Trump Republicans still support him in practice when the alternative is working with Democrats.

        Saying they’re separate is like saying AOC and Nancy Pelosi are in different parties.

          If you want to get pedantic then the US has MANY different legal parties. Functionally only three that matter.

            Still I think people should pay more attention on smaller parties. But nice to see a third big party forming
