The GOP's Natural Selection and Survival of the Fittest is in question. . .


English naturalist Charles Darwin developed the idea of natural selection, which is a process through which living organisms adapt and change. Individuals in a population are naturally variable, meaning that they are all different in some ways. This variation means that some individuals have traits better suited to the environment than others. In other words, it becomes a survival of the fittest.

Fast forward to 2021 and the presidential loss by Donald trump.

The Grand Old Party of Republicans entered what you could call a period of "natural selection." Some of the congressional members who are members of that party were faced with a delicate decision to make. Would their character traits be better suited for re-election if they survived and reproduced under Trump?  Or, would they be better suited to continue evolving if they survived as the fittest in the Grand Old Party? 

As Darwin pointed out, some species will evolve into an awkward and mentally regressive specimen and will, in the end, become extinct. The species will meet it fateful demise. Many think the Republican Party of Trump is that unfit candidate to be a long term species. There has been too much inbreeding and a poor quality of character genes.

What to do. . . what to do?

Natural selection can lead to speciation, where one species gives rise to a new and distinctly different species. It is one of the processes that drives evolution and helps to explain the diversity of life on Earth.

Is the Republican Party of Trump the fittest to survive?  Are they to become the party to carry on the evolution of their political species? Or, will they be the one to initially lurch forward, only to be swept into the dust bin of history and be the ending of their species?

Well, I think we all know the answer to that.  The only thing to watch for now is how well the Grand Old Party can convince the Party of Trump that their cult is headed for the dead end in their evolution line. 

And natural selection's survival of the fittest waits for no one!
