    if you believe that then why would you care?
    it pisses off people that would have never voted for them so who cares? It inspires their base. Elections are one and lost by whether or not your base shows up to vote.

    "Dozens of House Republicans, staffers march maskless to Senate floor to protest mask mandate"

    think all of them have had the vaccine, just like Trump, Trump got the vaccine in January and he already had natural immunity, why, cause he knows it will help protect him from the variants

    I'm talking a single major party along the lines of the Reform Party of the 90's; a party that adopts ideology from both conservative and liberal sides.

    And the democrat party is the party of wearing a mask improperly.

    I think the best hope for a third party is on the extreme.

    Rome wasn't built in a day. Of course it'll take time to accomplish this but you have to start somewhere. It's better then sitting there and doing nothing.

    It's been 161 years. Nobody's claiming that you're building this in a day.

    Chasing wild geese maybe fulfilling and it may bring you some Joy but not doing it is probably smarter.

    Probably doesn't want to spread more Delta variant to the Philippines. Not a consideration that Trump would take.

    They are the party of freedom. Pro-freedom is the proper term.

    Life comes before Liberty; we have no freedom to infect.

    Would that include Pelosi taking her MANDATED mask off for her photo op's at the capital, or are these mandates just for the GOP?

    If mask actually worked as advertised by the left, we wouldn't be in the position we are in right now.
    If mask actually worked, you wouldn't be concerned about those who don't wear one.
    If mask actually worked, the left would have been active in stopping the millions who were rioting and marching for 8 months
    If mask actually worked, Pelosi wouldn't have been caught maskless for her hair appointment when she was the one mandating them
    If mask actually worked, we would have millions of homeless in California alone filling up hospitals and the left would be using that as the PERFECT example
    If mask actually worked, chemist working in viral labs wouldn't need respirators

    You can't stop a virus with a paper mask or a tee shirt. You can't control exhaling and inhaling around the edges of a paper mask which is more than 90% of what comes in and out of these paper mask as you breath.

    They are designed for fluid transfer ONLY so when you cough, sneeze, or talk it captures the fluids you expel. Viruses are spread as aerosol. Which is why the manufactures of these mask have a declaration right on the box. WILL NOT PROTECT YOU FROM COVID.

    If they put nothing on the box you couldn't file a lawsuit against them because you thought it would protect you. They put the disclaimer on the box because you can't expect a 10 micron mask that gets 90% of you respiration around the edges of it when dealing with a .03 micron virus.

    All you have is leftist propaganda no different then Pelosi.

    You should immediately stop driving. There is always a chance you could kill someone and life comes before Liberty.

    Millions of Americans understand the importance of freedom and that we can balance both. That's who these congressmen represent.

    Anyone concerned about them being unmasked can get vaccinated or wear a n95 mask. If they are exceptionally paranoid the can do both. The Republicans are no threat to them.

    It would be a minor party at best. The other two parties wouldn't put up with the competition.

    That might be the other two parties position at the outset, however if there is enough determination by the third party, anything is possible.

    No I'll keep driving because I take the basic precautions. I follow posted speed limits, I use my signals, I wear my required seat belt, I carry mandated liability insurance, and I don't set out on the road each day hell-bent to stick it to Democrats by causing as many accidents as I can.
