Deeper than this, the Tea Party was never going to be a true game changer...Sure it gathered some of the true politically motivated, it never held the cultural saturation that MAGA has..
Think about it like this, right now people are wearing MAGA hats as they protest Lockdowns in the UK, as they protest the CCP making moves to secure Hong Kong..People waiving Trump flags in Paris to protest against corruption and Macron, Pro Skaters are putting Trump graphics on their boards to just be rebels and trigger idiots..
MAGA has become a cultural symbol, a symbol against the corruption and elitist moved not just within politics but also in culture as well...This is something that would never have happened with some older people sitting in lawn chairs waiving flags..

The TEA Party formed under the presidency of Barrack Hussein Obama. Who do you think ushered in the outsider, Donald J Trump???
Come on man. Stop thinking you are the center of the universe and give those before you some credit.
