    I see, so if something that is almost certainly not going to happen happens, a Green candidate who you have not named has a 99% chance of beating Trump.

    That’s not what I asked. I didn’t ask for special, very unlikely circumstances.

    Name the third party candidate who has a good chance of winning as things stand now. Just give me a name.

        Your wild guess percentages based on zero evidence are not a name. You still have not given me a name. Who am I supposed to vote for if you won’t even give me a name?

            I asked for a name that has a reasonable chance of beating both Trump and Biden. I see that West has 2% support. That is not a reasonable chance, so that name is not the name I asked for.

            Also, you have contradicted yourself, because Cornel West is not a Green party candidate. Therefore, based on your previous post, he won’t have that (evidence-free) 99% chance of winning.

            Odd that this name for a candidate that can win is so hard for you to come up with.

              Donald Trump. he has a high percentage chance to win.

              That’s what you’re looking for right? Someone with a high win percentage?

              Or are you looking for someone that endorses your views with a win percentage? I hear Joe Biden endorses Genocide, do you endorse genocide?

                Nope, this is what I have asked you for multiple times:

                Please name the third party candidate that has a reasonable chance of beating both Trump and Biden.

                If there is no candidate that has such a chance, why bother voting?

                  Because if the amount of voters for a different candidate increases then it will be noticed. It will do two things:

                  • Force the Dems to move back more to the left actually to win back those votes

                  • The next time around people will consider it a more viable option.

                  Asking for them to win directly is basically a catch22.

                  If you keep voting Democrat now you very explicitly endorse that you are content with their current policies.

                    That didn’t happen with Perot or Nader. I find it very hard to believe that would happen this time.

                    Why can’t you just admit that you can’t give me a name?
