1. They forgot to include Centrists such as myself, who realize that the Republicans and Democrats and specifically AOC, Sanders and Warrens progressives are completely out of their f’n minds

2. So what they are saying is that many colleged-educated voters actualy think higher taxes, more regulations, Socialism and more central government control over our lives is a good thing? Just shows that college education in the 21st century corrupts individualism and freedom – the bedrock of this country for 240 years!

3. Democrats are not divided, differ on some views but not divided

4. You will see an independent elected with those kind of numbers. A lot of independents voted for Biden and could switch back with Republicans leaving their party

5. Call trumps party trumplicans

6. Well the good thing is the pandemic has dropped 20% since January 20th isn't that amazing hard to believe

7. who tf did this poll

8. The rigid and exclusionary voting system in the US is designed to maintain the present two-party system no matter how dysfunctional that system has become. There are at least two distinct grouping in both major parties, and arguably even more. If you look at the ideological caucuses within the parties it tells you more, in the Dems it's the Progressive Caucus, New Democrat centrists and a smaller rump of conservative Blue Dog Democrats. The Progressives and Blue Dogs in particular would be separate parties in most other democracies as their views on many key issues are poles apart.

9. Not inclusive enough. No parties. Period. That's the way it was set up.

10. Wrong analysis… there two sides the stablisment and the people and Trump belongs to the last one.

11. This is not news lol

12. Make absolutely 0 sense.

13. I would love to see 6 – 10 parties who will get voted out a la American Idol style. Why not? Last party standing with the most popular votes wins, no absurd electoral vote nonsense.

14. Yes

15. 4 It was destroyed, the earth fell; got sick, the world fell; the high peoples of the earth fell ill. 5 And the land was polluted under its inhabitants; because they violated the laws, they distorted the law, they broke the everlasting covenant. 6 For this reason the curse consumed the land, and its inhabitants were laid waste; for this cause the inhabitants of the earth were consumed, and men were diminished.
    7 The wine is lost, the vine is diseased, all the merry of heart groaned.
    8 The rejoicing of the tambourines has ceased, the noise of those rejoicing has ceased, the joy of the harp has ceased.
    9 They will not drink wine with singing; cider will be bitter to those who drink it.
    10 The city is broken by vanity; every house has been closed, so that no one can enter.
    11 There are cries for lack of wine in the streets; all joy was darkened, joy was banished from the earth.
    12 The city was desolate, and the gate was broken down with ruin.
    13 For so shall it be in the midst of the earth, in the midst of the peoples, like a shaken olive tree, like gleanings after the harvest.
    Isaiah 24: 4-13.

    6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars; see that you are not disturbed, because it is necessary that all this happens; but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be plagues, and famines, and earthquakes in different places. 8 And all this will be the beginning of pain.

    9 And when you hear of wars and seditions (protests against their rulers), do not be alarmed; because it is necessary that these things happen first; but the end will not be immediately. 10 Then he said to them: Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; 11 and there will be great earthquakes, and in different places famines and pestilences; and there will be terror and great signs from heaven.
    Luke 21: 7-11

16. Half the time Chuck is making things up. The real problem there's a severe lack of civic education in the country. The republican base is largely Nativist, here in Florida they voted for trump yet supported a 15 phr minimum wage. People don't even weight issues anymore and politics is becoming more and more a emotional exercise.

17. Oh imagine what could be accomplished if we used Party-list proportional representation

18. Where did he get those numbers? Independents make up the largest portion of the electorate.

19. right

20. Thanks Joe… Great executive decision!

21. Wonder if the 60% is mostly millennials

22. Yes, you are ready to be a four-party system! Having only two parties just makes no sense!

23. I think Biden is more progressive than he himself realised. And if this wasn't so demonised in the US that could really be celebrated!
    Progressive policies just make a lot of sense!

24. 4 X 17% = 2/3 Where is missing 1/3?

25. We, Switzerland, have also been a democracy since 1848, we are a neutral country, have never had a war since our foundation in 1848, we are respected in the world and we have 4 major parties and another 5 parties in the country that form the government . Our government has 7 federal councilors and a two-chamber system (National Council and Council of States), similar to the USA. The various parties are elected in the two chambers by the people and these two chambers elect the 7 federal councilors. One of the 7 Federal Councilors takes the chair for 1 year and is President of the Federal Council. Everything that happens in our country is determined by these political levels and submitted to the people for a vote on important issues. I can say that I am happy to live in this country and it works great! There is no left or right, but togetherness. In the case of vocal elections, the result is accepted by all citizens. Something like the one in the USA will not happen to us because the mixed parties prevent this from happening. Also the power is not in the hands of one person but is distributed over the whole people. I would advise the US to take a look at our system of government.

26. the trump party…. we need to get people like that out of politics

27. The Prime Minister of Israel on the one hand will flatter and beg and see presentations of intelligence and lie to the President of the United States and will also draw time with lies. This is the game that the Prime Minister of Israel will make for the President of the United States. The Prime Minister of Israel will not honor the President of the United States. The Prime Minister of Israel will make fun of America. The Israelis also planted wiretaps in the White House. The US administration will talk to Israel and obey Israel because in fact Israel has ruled America for many years and most of the US administration is Jewish, Israel has worked for many years to take over America and it happens, America has reached a point where it is afraid of Israel and does everything Israel says because all party power is Because of the Jews. America can do nothing without Israel's approval.

28. People here talking about the Electoral College system seem to not be able to distinguish between Congress and the President. Remember, the Electoral College chooses the President and you cannot have a “coalition government” President since there’s only one person. Unless you want to create Frankenstein. Congress is a different issue, but at the end of the day, one person from one party will still win every single time.

29. How about the people who don't follow any of those parties? 🤔

30. Most demos live in califonia and NY; politically not viable

31. Chuck Todd is a tool!! Always has been

32. I would be afraid to be a so called journalist at this point in time

33. Four legitimate parties would be better for the democratic capitalist way. More competition breeds better products and services or, in this case, Mills’ marketplace of ideas!
