It's a real shame all of the third party candidates are crackpots. If a sensible, middle of the road unaffiliated candidate was running, I bet s/he would get a lot of votes.
If I were an American voter I'd certainly park my vote with a palatable independent as a form of protest. As it is, I think I would just not vote this time around. While this might pave the way for a possible Trump victory (and the chaos that could result in), four more years of Biden incompetence is equally disturbing. I think more people are starting to feel this way, and if so, Trump's chances of winning look better and better.
Yes, it is for the crackpots for the most part. Since it is all just for the show (because they can't win due to the mindset of the nation). Therefore more average people are trying to make their gains by climbing through 2 parties ... and where they end up they end up. Since this way they will probably achieve more in the terms of results. What is because third party looses by default (the odds that only a crackpot would take).
