    So the 2% party, if he tries really hard.

    With few exceptions,[1] the U.S. system has two major parties which have won, on average, 98% of all state and federal seats.[2] According to Duverger's law two main political parties emerge in political systems with plurality voting in single-member districts. In this case, votes for minor parties can potentially be regarded splitting votes away from the most similar major party.[2][3]

    The man who bought Donald Trump's election campaign is now pretending to be against him. Who will vote for him? The only thing both parties' voters have in common with Elon is their aversion to him (I think).
