And now the Republican Party has made another major evolution, and turned into the MAGA Party. They no longer follow any of the tenets of the Republican Party - smaller government, lower taxes, economic responsibility, family values, etc. - and only follow the MAGA tenets of hatred, bigotry, cruelty, treason, fiscal mismanagement, incompetence, weaponisatuon, and pedophilia.
The Republican Party is as dead as the Whigs, and should only be referred to in a historic, scholarly setting, as the precursor to the MAGA Party. All Democratic politicians should stop saying Republican Party in all media appearances, and only refer to them as the MAGA Party.
Democratic leadership should even hold an official press conference making the announcement that they are unilaterally declaring the Republican Party dead, replaced by the MAGA Party, and then never refer to the Republicans again. Making this fundamental declaration about the Republican Party without consulting them, will likely make them go even crazier. I can already hear them howling like the baboons they are.
Most of those people grew up in the Republican Party, and it is their identity. To kill it, and replace it with a preschool fingerprinting like the MAGA Party will grind up many of them. Many are only MAGAs Of Convenience, and they won't like it at all. I want to see them howl that they are officially sidelined from history, and scream that they are NOT MAGA, they are REPUBLICANS!
There is stress between MAGA and the traditional GOP that they try to hide, and pretend doesn't exist, and this would put tremendous strain on that partnership.
