Boy ~~Loyalist~~ Republicans only chance to hold on to power seems like lying, ignoring the body politic, taxing without much representation, enslavement, armed bullying and murder.

Any Republican elected after 1968 can't govern. All they know is enslavement, ignore they body politic, infight, be armed bullies, tax without representation, and lie.
