Rather than a third party i see a greater chance of fractionalization. Maybe 5-10 small parties able to gather steam in Congress. There are a large number not happy with either political party that could begin aligning themselves into single issue parties unwilling to compromise at all - groups like hard-core pro-life, socialist, isolationist, etc..

third parties are pink unicorns. every time a third party is mentioned, there are starry visions of the perfect candidate, who is an archetype of virtue (at least the virtues of the dreamer) and possesses no human fault.

i'm much more in agreement with you have said above.
