The MAGA Party?

 I noticed via social media today....someone suggesting up the idea of leaving the Republican Party (because it's filled with so many fakes), and then adapting Trump values to a new party.

Observations over this idea?

Basically, you'd be losing the 2022 mid-term election.  You'd also probably be giving up the odds of winning the 2024 election.

How many Republicans would walk away and join such a party?  That's another problem.  My humble guess is that fewer than one out of four for the next four years. Maybe by 2028?  You might see 75-percent of Republican-leaning voters going this way.

Affecting a twist on the Democrats as well?  Well, why not open this up and get Democrats to trigger the same thing in their camp?  Why not let the far left stick with the Democratic brand, and let working-class Democrats have a smaller party that has fewer of the dramatics and fake branding?  

As for dismantling the Republicans?  They would be basically stuck.....unless they cooperated with the MAGA folks...there would be no future for the Republicans for the next decade.  

I'm not suggesting this is a brilliant idea, but the Republican Party is crapped out presently, and way too many 'fakes' in the middle of it.
