Will we ever reach a greater than 2 party system?

[Хahar 🤔]

No, never. There's no incentive.

Eventually one of the two Parties will foul up badly like the Federalists or Whigs, and the unwieldy party that survives will split. Such will happen if extremists take over a Party and start purging away moderates in the name of ideological consistency. 

This has never happened before. There is no reason to think it will.

People will first have to stop treating third parties like jokes.  Then the parties would have to not act like jokes.  We have to fix Congressional districting, and the third parties need to focus more on these legislative races, both at the state and national level.  There needs to be a base of support before there can even be talk of a presidential run.

I think the first steps are reversed. Why wouldn't people treat joke parties as jokes?

Yes-- if we get rid of the electoral college.

the electoral college should stay, it should however be amended so that a simple majority wins. that would if nothing else tear down the fire wall of throwing elections to house which kills any hopes of a third party presidential candidate winning.

A majority in the electoral college is already the criterion to win.

Didn't there used to be a Democratic-Republican Party that was the opposition against the Federalists?  After a while the D-R party broke up and the new Democrat party was formed and the Whigs became?

Will that happen to the current two party system in the future?

This is one of the most hilarious oversimplifications I've ever seen.

Both the Republican and Democratic parties used to be that sort of party. Many countries are ruled by such parties. They tend to be kleptocratic.
