Part 2/11:
The Wig Party was once one of the two dominant parties, producing four U.S. presidents—William Henry Harrison, John Tyler, Zachary Taylor, and Millard Fillmore. However, despite its successes, it disappeared by 1854, only 21 years after its founding, replaced by the Republican Party. The phrase "going the way of the wigs" now symbolizes a party on the brink of extinction, replaced by another that aligns with changing political tides.
Recent events seem to echo this historical pattern, prompting speculation that the Democrats are also on an unsustainable trajectory. The question is whether current internal conflicts, policy stances, and demographic shifts signal an inevitable decline.
