We definitely don't have a two party system. Trump came in and invented a whole new party just like that. We have republicans, democrats and trumpers.

Pro-Trump Republicans and anti-Trump Republicans are not at all separate parties, and 99% of anti-Trump Republicans still support him in practice when the alternative is working with Democrats.

Saying they're separate is like saying AOC and Nancy Pelosi are in different parties.

Is it a LEGALLY different party though?

If you want to get pedantic then the US has MANY different legal parties. Functionally only three that matter.

Still I think people should pay more attention on smaller parties. But nice to see a third big party forming
