88. Political parties come and go.
Wed Mar 13, 2024, 06:00 PM
Mar 2024

They survive on their ethos and perceived competencies.
And the morality of those who run it.

The 'R' party has no positive ethos - grifting isn't a positive - and no competencies nor morality.

It is dying. Donors hide their purses and wallets, and eventually they will deny any involvement.

Every move they make is another shovel full of dirt out of their future grave.
It will be a pauper's grave. With no visitors.
