Despondent conservatives invent post-Trump fantasy land of third parties​

Red State, the conservative website, resembles a vomitorium after a Roman Bacchanal — or a frat party — after the nationwide realization that Donald Trump will be the GOP nominee for president. The site’s founder, Erick Erickson, has already publicly threatened to “de-register” as a Republican in light of the news.
In a rare acknowledgement that NBC correspondent Andrea Mitchell is right, the site blamed Twitter for the success of Trump’s candidacy, especially the Trump staff’s ability to flood Twitter with “lies.”

“Trump voters vote for the lie that Trump tells them, not for what he actually is, or what he actually does,” one conservative writer said. “That’s how he got here. I can’t tell you how many Trump voters I met in South Carolina who believed absolute, proven lies that Trump told, such as his fabrication of a quote from Tom Coburn. They took it as a fact, and they acted on the facts as they understood them.”

Before the bunting has been nailed to the convention hustings, they have suggested two possible “alternative” candidates to run against Trump, signaling a possibility that Republican Party stalwarts will break ranks.

They can't accept Der Donald.
 
I hope that there is a good third party candidate that comes from all of this. I don't want to vote for Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump and so if a good person can run as a third party i'd probably vote for him. I know that if a conservative ran as a third party that it would take votes away from Trump that might have gone to him but if it did then those people really didn't want to vote for him anyway in my opinion. Maybe the real shakeup from all of this should be more real options instead of just two.I know it won't happen but what if Bernie Sanders ran as a the founder of the democratic-socialist party and Ted Cruz or someone similar ran as the conservative party and we had four major candidates to pick from on election day. That could be pretty cool.

This ain't as far fetched as you'd like to think it is.....Trump is pulling voters from both parties and if the numbers get high enough, we could end up
with a viable third party in the future.....even Sanders is taking away some of Hillary's supporters and that could be a sign of things to come....
You never know....
