The Republican Party's Disarray: A Result of Failing to Stand Up to Trump

The Republican party has descended into disarray, with internal divisions and extremist factions causing turmoil. Once known for their ability to consolidate power, the party now struggles to maintain unity. The rise of the Tea Party in the 2010s splintered the party, and the emergence of Donald Trump further weakened the establishment. Republican leaders such as Eric Cantor, Paul Ryan, and Kevin McCarthy have faced setbacks and oustings as they failed to manage the party's internal divisions. The party's shift towards extremism and the amplification of extreme voices in right-wing media have contributed to the chaos. With no speaker, the House cannot fully function, while Democrats remain united. The Republican party's promise of order and strongman rule has resulted in anarchy and a breakdown of governance.
