    Primaries? Sure. In the general if you do that you are essentially voting for Trump and/or fascism. Third parties are spoilers 100% of the time until they can actually win. And none of them can right now.

      Gee you know what would really help with that fucked up situation? Ranked choice voting.

        Yeah no shit. The chance to get that from Republicans is somewhere below -1, close to hell probably.
