The ratio 999 is undefined, for it is zero over zero: what you interpret as a defense of the head of the republic party really isn’t that, and there is no leader of the Libertarian party.  If you wish to refute that last part, who is it please?  Perhaps if I knew I would defend him or her.

 

Regarding that first part, I am offering a plausible explanation for why the democrat party lost, which is not a defense of the guy who won, even if it sounds like it.

 

If you can offer a better explanation than the democrat party is battling against itself, with both sides of that party approximately equally matched and fighting itself to the death, I am open to suggestion.
