Yeah. Maybe after we clean up the party and the government as a whole, we could re-visit this idea. Although political parties are a bad idea in the first place, as George Washington remarked that they add to divisiveness in the nation.

"The spirit of party serves always to distract the public councils and enfeeble the public administration. It agitates the community with ill-founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot and insurrection."
