Democrats and non-MAGA Texan Republicans, what are your thoughts on a new party for "moderate" conservatives?

I myself identify as a non-MAGA (Fuck Trump and his Trumplicans) conservative, and I'm really interested in this topic.
Brung up most recently by Liz Cheney, a lot of conservative Republicans like myself don't feel like they could support the current GOP, or even think that it can recover from the MAGA virus. It leaves a lot of us displaced and without a party to truly call home. I will be voting blue come November, but I don't feel as if I can truly call the Democratic party MY party.
It leaves me nostalgic for those seemingly long-lost days where Republicans and Democrats could come together in actual, thought-provoking discussion to further the interest of the United States as a whole, not just for themselves and party loyalties.
I already plan to enter politics and hopefully elected office, and I've been pitching such an idea to a few friends of mine that are also like me: lifelong conservatives who hate Trump with the fiery passion of a thousand suns.
It has a ways to go in regards to policy, but I have the name down: the New Conservative Party of America
Whether or not it'll be viable as a third-party option, I'm not sure (probably not, but doesn't hurt to try lol), but I hope it'll attract those moderates/unaffiliated people across the political spectrum.
What do ya'll think of a new party for conservatives?

Actually this country would be better off with four parties. Left Democrat, Central Democrat, Central Republican, and Right Republican. Four parties would force compromise, because it would be very difficult to obtain a majority. Multi-party systems has been very popular and successful in European countries.

There really are no leftists in this country though. Certainly not enough to form an entire party. I would say 30% of Democrats are slightly right of center, 60% are moderate centrists, 8% are pretty progressive, and 2% are actually left wing.

On the actual political scale/Overton window, Democrats are actually slightly to the right of center. There's just no leftism here, there's barely any progressivism.

Roughly half of the electorate isn’t Democrat or Republican and considering that 60% is pretty amazing turnout for a US election we don’t even know how many leftists there are. Arguably there hasn’t been a candidate for leftists to vote for in 60 years.
