Do Republicans have buyer's remorse from last election?
In a recent Gallup poll, 52% of Republicans polled wanted a third Party. Thirty-three percent of Democrats favored a third Party. What does that tell us?

(linked from Newsmax-very right-wing- to show the dissatisfaction exhibited by many Republicans and Tea Partiers)

One might interpret that those that voted Republican in the last election are not very happy with the results? They made a big mistake and many now realize it. They were even willing to follow Trump for a while. That shows how desperate they are for someone else to vote for. They are not happy with the Republicans. The Gallop poll does not bode well for Republicans. It's not great for Democrats either but at least, the majority of Democrats still support their Party, unlike the majority of Republicans. The Republicans are a deeply divided Party, no matter how much they try to put on a happy face. The last election was a fluke. The Repubs will be very lucky if they can hold on to the House. They were given another chance by their Tea Party supporters and they blew it. This is just my opinion.
