Elon wants to start a new party. The problem is, he doesn't understand how the American government works. Which, you know, was the DODGE problem in the first fucking place.
1. You can't start a new party that doesn't caucus with the other parties because you will never get any commitee assignments. The committees are where government actually happens. All you can do is vote "NO" on the house floor, but you will never get to write anything.
2. Look, I wish we had a parlaimentary system, but we don't. I lieu of ranked voting, that means presidential democracy will ALWAYS come down to two parties, because THE ELECTORATE can't possibly negotiate a coalition government. You need the representatives to do it.
Rich fucking South African is going to drop a couple hundred million dollars down a hole, and (prediction) get 2 house seats that don't fucking matter.
Moreover, after these last three elections, does ANYONE actually buy this "Both parties are the same" Ralph Nader shit anymore?
