    Primary difference is GOP is a cult. 40% of the population will support you even if you’re drowning babies on fox news, if you have an ® before your name.

    Independents and Dems will largely admit their guy is screwing up and make it known. Sometimes even start looking for a new guy before giving the old guy a chance to recover.

    This mentality is why the GOP is still a thing, dems will leap off a flailing candidate like rats off a sinking ship and find a new candidate, while the GOP will go down with ship, burning dumpster fire and all, they only accept new blood when the old are finally dead and gone.
