If the parties split and you get like 4, more or less equally popular parties, then you'll end up like the countries in Europe. No single party will ever get a clear majority again and the "winner", who gets like 35% of the votes, is forced to make a coalition with other parties in order to rule. Forget about solving any of the real problems like that. You want to deport criminals? The other coalition party is pro refugees. Solution is to deport criminals only if you let in a million refugees every year. You want a wall? Fine, but you make a hole every hundred yards for the wild animals, etc. There is no democratic way out of this, the sooner people realize this, the better.
One bullet=One politician
This is how the split would go:
- Republican Party or Reform Party or some Conservative Party
- Libertarian Party for the folks more in the middle
- Green Party for the leftist progressives
Edit: Dems would split into Libertarian and Green parties. Some Republicans would go to the Libertarian Party
