Sundance at Conservative Treehouse has an interesting take
on Sen. Rob Portman’s announcement that he will retire when his term is up in
2023:
With four GOP senators having
announced they’re not running (Burr, Johnson, Toomey, Portman) there’s
essentially zero chance of the GOP retaking control of the Senate in
2022. [20 R seats up & only 14 D seats that are in solid D
strongholds] it is far more likely the Democrats will gain seats, so keep this
in mind….
…When we think about forming a
third party, the “you will split the vote” crew always peddles their vote split
narrative. However, the GOP doesn’t have a chance in hell to win 2022
given what the base of the Republicans think about these senate DeceptiCons
now.
There has never been a better time
for a New Party to launch and capture three or four seats from the retiring
GOPe crew. It would be great to see true MAGA representatives that can
caucus with Republicans but hold ground on America First principles.
Sundance’s full report with links and commentary is here.
UPDATE: Don Surber thinks a third party is still a bad idea. See here.
