What if Trump formed an American Party and he already has elected allies ready to join.
There are 435 voting members in the House of Representatives. Imagine if only 146 of them (many Republicans, some Democrats) changed parties to join the new American Party. That would give them the majority in the House, and the Speaker position.
Imagine in the Senate if 34 Senators (some Republicans and some Democrats) changed parties to join the new American Party. That would give them control of the Senate as well.
There are many members of both the House and Senate who are very frustrated with the Democrat and Republican parties. There are also quite a few that were caught cheating in elections by the White Hats... or they've been compromised, etc... to the point where they might be controlled (or very strongly encouraged to change parties).
It would be HUGE tonight if Trump's announcement was the formation of an American Party... along with the announcement of a coalition of new members that will give the American Party control of both houses of Congress in 2023. :>)
That would instantly send McConnell, Schumer, Pelosi, McCarthy, etc... into a tailspin. It upends their little world... and certainly upends the Deep State, which has controlled both parties for decades.
I’ve been thinking the same thing for a while.
