How the Tea Party Got Hijacked by Trump’s Troll Party
All my life, the Republican Party has been my political home. Helping it succeed has been my work for decades. It was never perfect, but families never are.
Flawed, and given to wrong turns from time to time, we had good years and terrible years. We elected presidents, took back Congress after decades, lost it, and took it back again. Our leaders ranged from bad to extraordinary. But through it all, the GOP was the one party even vaguely amenable to limited-government conservatism, to at least some adherence to the Constitution over the social preferences of the moment, and to the constraints on government power that our Founding Fathers so cherished. It was nice while it lasted.
Today the Republican Party has two choices before it: It can either reform itself, or fracture and surrender to the Troll Party.

Maybe its my browser but the tabs are not color coded and the "Lounge" tab and "Conference" tabs are right next to each other. Sometimes I just accidentally click on the wrong one.

Those tabs should not be that close to each other. I blame the website.
