That immediately ignited the "not my president" opposition from Republicans, who believed since Clinton didn't win a 50% majority or better, he wasn't the legitimate president. For the first time, there was no general acceptance to support the sitting president. Not even reluctant, begrudgingly.
That sentiment was ignited into a dumpster fire by
Fatface Limbaugh and
Newt "I cheated on my cancer stricken wife and told her I was divorcing her at her hospital bedside" Gingrich.
Washington was right to warn against political parties, and watch them closely. The GOP did everything Washington warned against, including elevation of the most unscrupulous man Donald Trump.
