(36,827 posts)10. To their credit, they ran the GOP like a business
At least like many businesses in that they only considered the short term gains of demagoguery and pandering to the base emotions of their constituency without any consideration to the long term damage they were doing to their brand. Relying on an increasingly larger share of a shrinking demographic eventually reaches a tipping point from which there's no return.
