It's a pedantically correct acronym and also conveys exactly what is intended without any extra syllables.

He has nearly complete control of the Republican Party, which he has weakened in the process.

The party is nothing but a cult now. It should, however, be named the Trump Party. That would better reflect what the party is all about. They have no platform, no values, no principles. Just worship of their god.

It would be the death of the NE Patriots, would be disrespecting Myra's memory, and an insult to all the Massholes who hate Trump.

...tried this. He fizzled out fairly quickly, it was essentially a one issue party, that being NAFTA. Buchannan hijacked it later and it was pretty much the kiss of death.

In Trump's case, well, he's no Ross Perot. Trump will squeeze every last penny out of a grift, he'll use the "party" as a way to blackmail GOP politicians in some shape or form.
