'I think we are at that crossroads where this kind of change can happen,' the congressman from Michigan said, discussing his bid for the Libertarian Party's presidential nomination.

Amash asserted that he aims to represent the Americans frustrated with the current political divide."I think we are at that crossroads where this kind of change can happen," he said.

Any third-party candidate would face an uphill battle to win the presidency. The U.S. political system has been dominated by the two-party system for decades, with only one independent serving in the House of Representatives, and just two serving in the Senate. The Libertarian Party's 2016 presidential nominee, Gary Johnson, garnered only 3.27 percent of the national popular vote, which was the political party's best-ever election result.

"He can siphon enough votes from the Democratic nominee, Joe Biden, to hand the election to Trump," former Republican Representative Joe Walsh of Illinois, who unsuccessfully mounted a GOP primary challenge to Trump, wrote in an opinion article for."And you don't have to be happy with your choices at this point to see that the only candidate who can beat Trump is the Democratic Party nominee.

3rd party vote w/o a hope of victory is nothing more than a vote for Trump because HIS supporters won't waver.

justinamash is trying to make it impossible for us to get rid of this cancer, Trump. That needs to be the focus. This is not the time.

Ok Congressperson, now that you have bitched out your complaints, now give the ppl your solutions...........that’s what I thought. Your point, oh yeah, you may run for President 🤨🤨

Are you advocating weed for all🤣

He's trying to get Trump reelected.

It's time for Justin Amash to join the real world.

Sit down Amash. 9/11 first responders deserved healthcare to enjoy what remains of their lives.

Another subscriber to the false equivalence of Trump to the Democrats. Amash's answer is to take actions which raise the chances that Trump will be reelected. That is in no one's best interests. What's with this guy?

Justin Amash cares about Justin Amash, if he were able to blow himself he would never leave his mansion...

nebulous BS to excuse the gop with a false equivalence. neither party is perfect but when examined at the margins, the democrats are demonstrably better at representing the breadth and depth of America.

Tea party is the Isis of American. They hate hate and hate until they throw their own country under the bus!

Why should he get ANY Tv time? EXACTLY. Here's a suggestion tv programmers, find out where ALL those homeless people are and have a deep discussion right about now.

Amash is a nobody

Like Ford and Chevy, Coke and Pepsi.... the duopoly of our two political parties really need to be addressed and maybe overhauled.

He is one of those RepubliCONS. He cannot fix anything. No one wants Drump for another 4 years

He’s not wrong.

Take your tea party that set all these events in motion and go home, Justin

Only he can fix it?
