Gawd, I couldn't live like that

 WHATEVER  HAPPENED  TO  THE  GOP?

The Grand Old Party was founded in 1854 and enjoyed many years of successfully controlling the political dynamics of the United Statesl of America. They enjoyed twenty-four times of successfully winning the White House. 

Then, one dark and rainy night, a street tough and his thugs from  Gotham City busted down the doors of the Republican Headquarters, changed all visible names from Republican to MAGA, and has changed everything else in sight - except their dirty shorts - ever since!

MAGA came in like the anti-Christ of politics and has steadily gotten worse. If it was the American democracy way to do things, it was changed to "what-would-the-devil-do-if-he-was-in-charge?"

And sure enough, the devil walked through the door and nothing has been the same since. No Mr. Nice Guy Republican, no Rule of Law, no Constitution, and no democracy. The devil stood at his podium and  bellowed in a deep roar, "It's authoritarian/dictator time, and the first drink is on me!"

But seriously, how did this conversion really happen?  How did he convert so many, so fast, to his Cult? Or, maybe the better question to ask would be, "Why did so many drop face down into a prone position and offer their body and soul to the devil who demanded he be called "The Magnificient MAGA Monarch!"

To this day, the last vestiges of the Republicans have become proficient in only a few things:  Kneeling, bowing, noding yes, and waiting for commands from the "Magnificient one."

God, I couldn't live like that.
