Is this the right time for a Republican Christian and a Hindu Democrat to join forces and launch a third party in US politics?

I'm talking about Ro and MTG of course. It's seemed for some time, and especially during Trump's spas-fest over Easter weekend, that multitudes of once-reliable Trumpies would vote against Trump at their next opportunity, and that, failing a viable 3rd party, that protest vote would, by default, go to the Dems. What a terrible waste of a historic moment that would be. As much as I like Jill Stein, the Greens lack the national profile to upset the two-party apple-cart. That's why I did a double-take when I read reports that former Trumpie Marjorie Taylor-Greene and lefty-Dem Ro Khanna were cooking up some sort of populist-oriented colaboration. MTG went ballistic against Trump when he did his 180 on the Epstein files. Ro has displeased the DNC establishment for daring to question its slavish adherence to Israeli policy positions. So I don't know if this is the right time, but it just might be the last best time we'll ever get! Go Ro! Go Marj!
