Do you think other political parties change is coming?

Answer 1

In the US at least, there is a good likelihood of a new, powerful political party being created in the next few years, mainly due to voter dissatisfaction with the current two-party system.

The Democratic Party has the appeal of being a relatively inclusive group, but they’re generally unorganized, ineffective, and aren’t known for being strong, assertive leaders. Their perceived (actual) weakness and ineffectiveness is turning off voters who feel the Democratic Party doesn’t appreciate them. Their voters elect them to office, but the politicians don’t fulfill the promises they made to get elected.

Example: Joe Biden. He ran on a platform of saving democracy, but he’s been relatively silent on election reform measures that are held up in the US Senate. Instead, he’s focusing on getting his infrastructure bills passed, and telling voter rights activists they need to do more. The lack of action on immigration reform is also disaffecting left-leaning voters.

The Republican Party under Trump has been split into two camps: the never Trumpers who don’t like the direction their party has taken, but can’t bring themselves to vote for Democrats, and the pro-Trump faction that opposes COVID mandates and democracy itself, and embraces a far right, violent ideology to gain more power. The Republican Party can’t be saved from that faction, so the non-Trump voters are more likely to join disaffected Democrats and Independent voters in creating a new coalition of voters who are centrists leaning to the left and to the right.
